a = 1, b = 2, c = 3, d = 4, e = 5, f = 6

Explanation:

We have: f(x) -= (x - 2)^(5) + 2 (x - 2)^(4) + 3 (x - 2)^(3) + 4 (x - 2)^(2) + 5 (x - 2) + 6

Let's compare this to f(x) -= a (x - 2)^(5) + b (x - 2)^(4) + c (x - 2)^(3) + d (x - 2)^(2) + e (x - 2) + f.

All we have to do is compare the coefficient of each term to a, b, c, d, e and f

Rightarrow a = 1

Rightarrow b = 2

Rightarrow c = 3

Rightarrow d = 4

Rightarrow e = 5

Rightarrow f = 6
