In a polynomial `p(x)=x^(2) + x + 41` put different value of x and find p (x). Can you conclude after putting different value of x that p(x) is prime for all. Is x an element of N ? Put x=41 in p(x). Now what do you find ?

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:

Conjecture is false because you can not find a composite number for x = 41.
