Original question and givens

Use the integer polynomial candidate with ascending-power coefficients=[-1, -1, 1]. Initial data and ODE residuals are separate obligations. Neither a finite grid nor an initial-value match proves existence, uniqueness, a general solution or an identity on an entire interval. x0=2, required y0=1, required y_prime0=2. Give (coefficients,x0,y(x0),y'(x0),required y0,required y_prime0,value match?,derivative match?,both?).

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.

Step-by-step derivation

S001 · implies

Before

candidate polynomial ascending coefficients=[-1, -1, 1]

After

initial point=2; required y₀=1

Conditions: none

Retain the polynomial and initial data;the residual grid need not contain the initial point,so evaluate it separately.

Step identifiers and dependencies

Rule: candidate_IVP_data · Uses: G001

S002 · calculation

Before

y′ coefficient at degree0 := mul(1, -1)

After

y′ coefficient at degree0 = -1

Conditions: none

Multiply by the original degree and lower it by1;the constant term differentiates to0.

Rule: exact_rational_arithmetic · Uses: G001, S001

S003 · calculation

Before

y′ coefficient at degree1 := mul(2, 1)

After

y′ coefficient at degree1 = 2

Conditions: none

Multiply by the original degree and lower it by1;the constant term differentiates to0.

S004 · implies

Before

initial y ascending coefficients=[-1, -1, 1]

After

evaluate at x=2

Conditions: none

Evaluate ascending coefficients by Horner from the highest nonzero term down;ignoring redundant top zero terms changes neither the function nor the retained original list.

S005 · calculation

Before

initial y Horner multiply before degree1 := mul(1, 2)

After

initial y Horner multiply before degree1 = 2

Conditions: none

Multiply by the same evaluation point first.

S006 · calculation

Before

initial y Horner add degree1 := sum(2, -1)

After

initial y Horner add degree1 = 1

Conditions: none

Then add the full coefficient at this position.

([-1, -1, 1], 2, 1, 3, 1, 2, Yes, No, No)

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