By rational root theorem turn the given polynomial into a degree = 2 polynomial with
rational root
x = 1, -1, 2, -2 are all possible root
So, x -2, x=1. Polynomial is equal to 0

So, polynomial becomes (x1)(x+2)x2+(2a1)x+1

So, we only need to focus on the quadratic
(2a1)240n(S)=38;n(E)=36; Pr obability =3638=1819
