a.
Answer to Problem 54E
Explanation of Solution
Calculation:
Consider the polynomial function,
Now write the polynomial as the product of factors that are irreducible over the rationales,
Put
Hence,
the polynomial as the product of factors that are irreducible over the rationales is

b.
Answer to Problem 54E
Explanation of Solution
Calculation:
Consider the polynomial function,
Now write the polynomial as the product of linear and quadratic factors that are irreducible over the real.
From part
Hence,
c.
