Answer:


x^3+x^2+x+1=\left(x+1\right)\left(x^2+1\right)

Explanation:

Given the expression


x^3+x^2+x+1

Factorized by grouping


x^3+x^2+x+1=\left(x^3+x^2\right)+\left(x+1\right)

Factor out x² from x³+ x²: x²(x+1)


=\left(x+1\right)+x^2\left(x+1\right)


=\left(x+1\right)+x^2\left(x+1\right)

Factor common term x+1


=\left(x+1\right)\left(x^2+1\right)

Therefore, we conclude that:


x^3+x^2+x+1=\left(x+1\right)\left(x^2+1\right)
