Question 1204561: You are asked to factor a quintic polynomial g(x). Argue whether or not g(x) could be factored completely by using only the factor theorem. Give examples to support your argument(s). Make sure to discuss all possibilities (real solutions, no real solutions, rational solutions, etc.).

(1) We don't know what you are calling "the factor theorem".

(2) An open discussion of possible mathematical methods is not appropriate for this forum.
