In Q[x], coefficient vectors are ordered from lowest to highest power. Find the coefficient of x^3 in the product of [10, 1, 1] and [17, -1].
G001 — In Q[x], coefficient vectors are ordered from lowest to highest power. Find the coefficient of x^3 in the product of [10, 1, 1] and [17, -1].Use the original question domain, assumptions and cited MKO definitions. This item has second-context mathematical and bilingual review, with the model, answer and every arithmetic step independently recomputed from the original parameters; the source question remains a candidate.
Before
Q[x];ascending coefficients;input vectors may have trailing zeros
After
equality uses every normalized coefficient,not numerical sampling
Conditions: none
Preserve the original factor order and vectors.Normalization removes only trailing high-power zeros;do not reorder source factors by semantic identity or infer polynomial equality from one point.
Rule: factorization_coefficient_identity_scope · Uses: G001
Before
raw left=[10, 1, 1];raw right=[17, -1]
After
normalized left=[10, 1, 1];normalized right=[17, -1]
Conditions: none
Remove trailing zeros only,not internal zeros or the original vector order.Empty and all-zero vectors both represent zero.
Rule: factor_vectors_trailing_zero_normalization · Uses: G001, S001
Before
power k=3;left=[10, 1, 1];right=[17, -1]
After
all index pairs i+j=k=[[2, 1]]
Conditions: none
Ascending-vector indices are powers.Collect every valid pair with i+j=k;polynomial multiplication is not entrywise multiplication.
Rule: product_coefficient_complete_index_pairs · Uses: G001, S002
Before
coefficient3 term2,1 := mul(1, -1)
After
coefficient3 term2,1 = -1
Conditions: none
Compute exactly from this step's original operands in the specified order,retaining signs and denominator conditions.
Rule: exact_rational_arithmetic · Uses: G001, S003
Before
coefficient3 complete sum := sum(-1)
After
coefficient3 complete sum = -1
Conditions: none
Compute exactly from this step's original operands in the specified order,retaining signs and denominator conditions.
Rule: exact_rational_arithmetic · Uses: G001, S004
S005 · premise_and_result_audit — Recompute coefficient3 complete sum with exact rational arithmetic, not rounded decimals.S004 · premise_and_result_audit — Recompute coefficient3 term2,1 with exact rational arithmetic, not rounded decimals.S003 · premise_and_result_audit — Check against the original data and this step's premises; a one-way implication is not an equivalence.S002 · premise_and_result_audit — Check against the original data and this step's premises; a one-way implication is not an equivalence.S001 · premise_and_result_audit — Check against the original data and this step's premises; a one-way implication is not an equivalence.-1
The full substitutions and premise checks give the original answer; source identity,format and status are unchanged.
