Question 1367: Coefficient Eligibility of a Candidate Antiderivative

Original question and givens

On all R, f has ascending coefficients [4, 17, 0, 1], starting with its constant term. The candidate F has ascending rational coefficient pairs [[3, 1], [4, 1], [17, 2], [0, 1], [1, 4]], with positive denominators. Is F′=f as a coefficient identity?

Definition and scope

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.

• mko-antiderivative

Step-by-step derivation

domain=R; coefficient lists are in ascending powers

constant term first; rational pairs=[numerator,denominator]

candidate F coefficients=[3, 4, 17/2, 0, 1/4]

target f coefficients=[4, 17, 0, 1]

candidate derivative coefficient0 := mul(1, 4)

candidate derivative coefficient0 = 4

candidate derivative coefficient1 := mul(2, 17/2)

candidate derivative coefficient1 = 17

candidate derivative coefficient2 := mul(3, 0)

candidate derivative coefficient2 = 0

candidate derivative coefficient3 := mul(4, 1/4)

candidate derivative coefficient3 = 1

differentiate all positive-degree terms

F′ coefficients=[4, 17, 0, 1]

F′ coefficients=[4, 17, 0, 1]; f coefficients=[4, 17, 0, 1]

F′=f identically: Yes

Result

Yes

The full substitutions and premise checks give the original answer; source identity,format and status are unchanged.
