Show that the polynomial $P = x^8-6x^3+ 2x^2+2$ is irreductible in $\mathbb{Q}[x]$.
Is is possible to use Eisenstein's criteria? Otherwise, is anyone could help me to solve it?

Recall what Eisenstein's criterion says. If you can find a prime, p, that divides all the coefficients except the leading one. And if p^2 does not divide the constant term then that polynomial is irreducible.
