Answer:

see explanation

Explanation:

This is not a prime polynomial as it can be factored into polynomials of lower degree.

Given

x³ + 3x² - 2x - 6 ( factor the first/second and third/fourth terms )

= x²(x + 3) - 2(x + 3) ← factor out (x + 3) from each term

= (x + 3)(x² - 2) ←can be reduced further as a difference of squares

= (x + 3)(x -
√(2) )(x +
√(2) )
