Problem 6 Express the problem of finding a quadratic polynomial p(x) = 20 +211 + a2r2 satisfying ſ p()dt = co, [ p(t)dt =c, ſp(t)dt = c, in terms of a linear system of equations. The morale of this problem is that a polynomial of degree m is unique determined by m linear constraints if the constraints are linear in the polynomial coefficients. This includes point evaluations, point evalutions of derivatives, integrals, and other functionals.
