$$p\left(x\right)+xp(-x)=x^2+1$$$$faindp\left(2\right)=?$$

Answered by mr W last updated on 14/Jan/22

$$p\left(x\right)+xp(-x)=x^2+1...\left(i\right)$$$$p(-x)-xp\left(x\right)=x^2+1$$$$xp(-x)-x^{2}p\left(x\right)=(x^2+1)x...\left(ii\right)$$$$\left(i\right)-\left(ii\right):$$$$(1+x^2)p\left(x\right)=(x^2+1)(1-x)$$$$\Rightarrow p\left(x\right)=1-x$$$$\Rightarrow p\left(2\right)=1-2=-1$$
