Original question and givens

Use the one-variable quadratic f(t)=a*t²+b*t+c with coefficients [a,b,c]=[3, -9, 0], not ascending-power order. The declared interval [lower,upper]=[-5, 6] belongs to the function data. point=0/1. Give (coefficients,interval,normalized point,feasible?,polynomial value,evaluation_only). Retain the polynomial value even for an infeasible candidate; its numerical value does not make it eligible. Use exact rational arithmetic with reduced positive denominators; omit /1 for integers. Keep convex-objective qualification, convex feasible-domain qualification, point feasibility, evaluation and comparison separate. These checks supply no general solver, global optimum, existence, uniqueness, KKT or convergence claim.

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

declared interval record=[-5, 6]

After

ordered_nonempty=Yes;nondegenerate=Yes

Conditions: none

This nonempty-interval protocol uses lower≤upper;the nondegenerate certificate additionally needs lower<upper.A reversed record is unqualified,not a declaration that the abstract empty set is nonconvex.A singleton interval is convex.

S002 · implies

Before

univariate quadratic coefficients=[3, -9, 0];order=[a,b,c]

After

f(t)=(3)*t^2+(-9)*t+(0)
