Let f(x)f(x) be a thrice differentiable function on the interval [a,e][a, e]. Define the auxiliary functions: G(x)=[f(x)]2+f(x)f(x),H(x)=ex(f(x)f(x))G(x) = [f'(x)]^2 + f(x)f''(x), \qquad H(x) = e^{-x}(f'(x) - f(x)) It is given that f(a)=f(e)=0f(a) = f(e) = 0. For constants b,c,db, c, d satisfying a<b<c<d<ea < b < c < d < e, the function takes the values f(b)=2f(b) = 2, f(c)=1f(c) = -1, and f(d)=2f(d) = 2.
