Since the expression of the second derivative of the original
function is a quadratic, then the original function is a 4th order
polynomial.
f(x) = ax^4 + bx^3 + cx^2 + dx
+e
We'll substitute x by 0:
f(0) =
e
But f(0) = 10 => e =
10
We'll differentiate f to get the expression of the
first derivative:
f'(x) =4ax^3 + 3bx^2 + 2cx +
d
Now, we'll substitute x by 0:
f'(0) =
d
But f'(0) = 5 => d =
5
Now, we'll differentiate
f'(x):
f'"(x) = (4ax^3 + 3bx^2 + 2cx +
d)'
f'"(x) = 12ax^2 + 6bx + 2c (1)
But,
from enunciation, we know that:
f " (x) = X^2 + X -1
(2)
We'll put (1) = (2):
12ax^2 + 6bx +
2c = X^2 + X -1
We'll put the correspondent coefficients in a
relation of equality:
12a =
1
a =
1/12
6b =
1
b =
1/6
2c =
-1
c =
-1/2
The original function f(x)
is:
f(x) = x^4/12 + x^3/6 - x^2/2 + 5x +
10
