Alright, let's tackle this polynomial problem that's about to be absolutely iconic! We have f of x equals x to the n plus 5 x to the n minus 1 plus 3, where n is greater than 1. Our mission? Prove this polynomial is irreducible over the integers. That means it cannot be factored into two non-constant polynomials with integer coefficients. Think of it as proving this polynomial is mathematically unbreakable - it's just built different!
