a. Show that x3 + x2 + 1 is irreducible over ℤ3.

b. Let ꭤ be a zero of x3 + x2 + 1 in an extension field of ℤ2. Show that x3 + x2 + 1 factors into three linear factors in (ℤ2(ꭤ))[x] by actually finding this factorization.

[Hint: Every element of ℤ2(ꭤ) is of the form

0 + ꭤ1ꭤ + ꭤ22 for ꭤi = 0,1.

Divide x3 + x2 + 1 by x - ꭤ by long division. Show that the quotient also has a zero in ℤ2(ꭤ) by simply trying the eight possible elements. Then complete the factorization)
