Integer polynomials have ascending coefficients f=[-3, 2, -1, 0], constant term first. For a=-2, b=2, give (f(a), f(b)) as integers.
G001 — Integer polynomials have ascending coefficients f=[-3, 2, -1, 0], constant term first. For a=-2, b=2, give (f(a), f(b)) as integers.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
f ascending coefficients=[-3, 2, -1, 0]
After
coefficient k multiplies x^k;keep all required degrees
Conditions: none
Coefficients are in ascending powers with the constant at index0.Full coefficient operations are not identities inferred from one-point agreement;retain the original coefficient list.
Rule: ascending_polynomial_identity · Uses: G001
Before
[-3, 2, -1, 0]
After
Horner at a=-2
Conditions: none
Use Horner from the highest nonzero degree down to the constant;do not reinterpret ascending coefficients as descending.
Rule: polynomial_horner_evaluation · Uses: G001, S001
Before
a multiply before degree1 := mul(-1, -2)
After
a multiply before degree1 = 2
Conditions: none
Multiply by the same specified input.
Rule: exact_rational_arithmetic · Uses: G001, S002
Before
a add coefficient1 := sum(2, 2)
After
a add coefficient1 = 4
Conditions: none
Then add the coefficient at this position.
Rule: exact_rational_arithmetic · Uses: G001, S003
Before
a multiply before degree0 := mul(4, -2)
After
a multiply before degree0 = -8
Conditions: none
Multiply by the same specified input.
Rule: exact_rational_arithmetic · Uses: G001, S004
Before
a add coefficient0 := sum(-8, -3)
After
a add coefficient0 = -11
Conditions: none
Then add the coefficient at this position.
Rule: exact_rational_arithmetic · Uses: G001, S005
Before
[-3, 2, -1, 0]
After
Horner at b=2
Conditions: none
Use Horner from the highest nonzero degree down to the constant;do not reinterpret ascending coefficients as descending.
Rule: polynomial_horner_evaluation · Uses: G001, S006
Before
b multiply before degree1 := mul(-1, 2)
After
b multiply before degree1 = -2
Conditions: none
Multiply by the same specified input.
Rule: exact_rational_arithmetic · Uses: G001, S007
Before
b add coefficient1 := sum(-2, 2)
After
b add coefficient1 = 0
Conditions: none
Then add the coefficient at this position.
Rule: exact_rational_arithmetic · Uses: G001, S008
Before
b multiply before degree0 := mul(0, 2)
After
b multiply before degree0 = 0
Conditions: none
Multiply by the same specified input.
Rule: exact_rational_arithmetic · Uses: G001, S009
Before
b add coefficient0 := sum(0, -3)
After
b add coefficient0 = -3
Conditions: none
Then add the coefficient at this position.
Rule: exact_rational_arithmetic · Uses: G001, S010
Before
f(a)=-11;f(b)=-3
After
retain a,b order;two equal values do not make f constant
Conditions: none
Equal values at two points do not make a polynomial constant,as x² at−1 and1 shows;report only the specified evaluations.
Rule: two_values_not_polynomial_identity · Uses: G001, S011
