Which of the following polynomials is prime?
A $5 x^{2} + 34 x + 24$
B $4 x^{2} + 22 x + 10$
C $4 x^{2} + 38 x + 70$
D $5 x^{2} + 3 x + 4$

Short Answer

$5 x^{2} + 3 x + 4$

Step by step solution

Step 1. Factor 5x2+34x+24.

Factorized the polynomial, $5 x^{2} + 34 x + 24$ .

$5 x^{2} + 34 x + 24 = 5 x^{2} + 30 x + 4 x + 24 = 5 x (x + 6) + 4 (x + 6) = (5 x + 4) (x + 6)$

Since the polynomial is factorized, it is not a prime.

Step 2. Factor 4x2+22x+10.

Factorized the polynomial, $4 x^{2} + 22 x + 10$ .

$4 x^{2} + 22 x + 10 = 4 x^{2} + 20 x + 2 x + 10 = 4 x (x + 5) + 2 (x + 5) = (4 x + 2) (x + 5)$

Since the polynomial is factorized, it is not a prime.

Step 3. Factor 4x2+38x+70.

Factorized the polynomial, $4 x^{2} + 38 x + 70$ .

$4 x^{2} + 38 x + 70 = 4 x^{2} + 28 x + 10 x + 70 = 4 x (x + 7) + 10 (x + 7) = (4 x + 10) (x + 7)$

Since the polynomial is factorized, it is not a prime.

Step 4. Factor 5x2+3x+4.

List the factors of 20 and look for the pair with sum of 3.

Factors of 20	Sum of factors
1	20
2	10
4	5

There are no factors with sum of 3. Hence, the given polynomial cannot be factored using integers. Therefore, $5 x^{2} + 3 x + 4$ is prime. As the obtained answer completely matches with option D, option D is the required answer.
