Original question and givens

Use the integer polynomial candidate with ascending-power coefficients=[12, 0]. 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. Relation y'=p*y+q with p=0, q=1; input grid=[-1, 0, 1], x0=2, required y0=13. Normalize the grid to sorted distinct points. Give (coefficients,p,q,grid,every [x,y,y',y'−p*y−q,zero?] row,x0,y(x0),required y0,initial match?,all grid residuals zero and initial match?).

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=[12, 0]

After

initial point=2; required y₀=13

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, 0)

After

y′ coefficient at degree0 = 0

Conditions: none

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