If a polynomial cannot be written as the product of two other polynomials (excluding 1 and minus−1), then the polynomial is said to be

In mathematics, a polynomial is an algebraic expression containing more than two terms. When the polynomial could not be reduced to a lower degree, it is classified as a prime polynomial. Just like whole numbers, a prime polynomial cannot be broken down into factors except 1 and by the number itself. Take for example, the polynomial x² + 5x + 6. It can be reduces to its factors x=-2 and -3. That would be expressed to x² + 5x + 6 = (x+2)(x+3). But if the polynomial is, say, x² + 5x + 7, there is no roots that are whole numbers. Therefore, it can't be reduced into factored groups because it is a prime polynomial.

I’m not sure about that
