Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The polynomial can be factored as $(x^2 + 9)(x^2 - 3)$, both of which are irreducible over the rationals.

Write the Polynomial as the Product of Factors That Are (x2+9)(x4−3)\left( x ^ { 2 } + 9 \right) \left( x ^ { 4 } - 3 \right)(x2+9)(x4−3)

Write the Polynomial as the Product of Factors That Are $\left( x ^ { 2 } + 9 \right) \left( x ^ { 4 } - 3 \right)$
