Let \(P(x)\) be a nonconstant polynomial, where all the coefficients are nonnegative integers. Prove that there exist infinitely many positive integers \(n\) such that \(P(n)\) is composite.

 

For this question can someone also explain what a composite polynomial is?

 

----------Thanks! laugh

A composite polynominal p(x) can be decomposed into two or more polynomials; that is, there are

polynomials u(x) and v(x) for which p(x)  =  u( v(x) ).

Thanks for the definition, but can you prove it too?
