Is there a continuous function satisfy folloing conditions? and why?



$$int_0^1 f(x) dx = int_0^1 xf(x) dx = int_0^1 x^2f(x) dx = 0$$



with $f(0)=1$

If you try $f(x)=ax^3+bx^2+cx+1$, then you have three linear equations in three unknowns.



$$beginalign
frac14a+frac13b+frac12c+1&=0\
frac15a+frac14b+frac13c+frac12&=0\
frac16a+frac15b+frac14c+frac13&=0
endalign$$



See if there is a solution to this system.
