Original question and givens

Coefficients in low-to-high degree order are=[-21, 0, 1]; all iterations use exact rational arithmetic. Use initial iterate=2 and attempted-step budget=1. Give (coefficients_low_to_high, step_budget, step_records, status, final_iterate, convergence_or_rate_proof_claim, finite_scope).

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.
