IZhO 2008 Problem 2

    A polynomial P(x)P(x) with integer coefficients is called good,if it can be represented as a sum of cubes of several polynomials (in variable xx ) with integer coefficients.For example,the polynomials x3−1x^3 - 1 and 9x3−3x2+3x+7=(x−1)3+(2x)3+239x^3 - 3x^2 + 3x + 7 = (x - 1)^3 + (2x)^3 + 2^3 are good. a)Is the polynomial P(x)=3x+3x7P(x) = 3x + 3x^7 good? b)Is the polynomial P(x)=3x+3x7+3x2008P(x) = 3x + 3x^7 + 3x^{2008} good?
