Original question and givens

On all R, f has ascending coefficients [3, 16, -17, -18], constant term first. For its zero-constant primitive F0, find the coefficient of x^4. Use reduced positive-denominator fractions, retaining /1 for integers.

  • G001 — On all R, f has ascending coefficients [3, 16, -17, -18], constant term first. For its zero-constant primitive F0, find the coefficient of x^4. Use reduced positive-denominator fractions, retaining /1 for integers.

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.
