Original question and givens

The integer-coefficient polynomial candidate has ascending-power coefficients=[10, 1, 2, 0]. Exact checks concern only the specified point or initial conditions, not existence, uniqueness or a solution on an entire interval. At x=1, check a*y''+b*y'+c*y=rhs with a=4≠0, b=1, c=-4, rhs=34. Give (coefficients, x, y, y', y'', a, b, c, rhs, signed residual, zero?).

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.
