US-TST 2005 Problem 4

    Consider the polynomials f(x)=∑k=1nakxkandg(x)=∑k=1nak2k−1xk,f(x) =\sum_{k=1}^{n}a_{k}x^{k} \text{and} g(x) =\sum_{k=1}^{n}\frac{a_{k}}{2^{k}-1}x^{k}, where a1,a2,…,ana_{1},a_{2},\ldots,a_{n} are real numbers and nn is a positive integer. Show that if 1 and 2n+12^{n+1} are zeros of gg then ff has a positive zero less than 2n2^{n} .
