We write 2018=2⋅1009, 100=22⋅52 and 1918=2⋅7⋅137. Then, the equation has the form
2x⋅1009x=22y⋅52y+2z⋅7z⋅137z,(1)
Consider the following cases:
* If 2y<z, then the power of 2 that divides the right hand side is 22y. (2)
From (1) and (2) we get that x=2y. The equation takes the form:
1918z=20182y−100y=(2018y−10y)(2018y+10y).
However, 2010∣2018y−10y, so 2010∣1918z, a contradiction.
* If z<2y, then the highest power of 2 that divides the right hand side is
2z.(3)From (1) and (3) we get x=z.
Then the equation has the form:
2018z−1918z=100y⇔2z(1009z−7z⋅137z)=22y⋅52y.(4)
Since z is odd, the number 1009z−7z⋅137z is even but it is not divisible by 4, so the highest power of 2 that divides the left hand side is z+1, so 2y=z+1, and the equation takes the form 2018z−1918z=10z+1. Therefore, 10z+1=2018z−1918z≥100z=102z, so 2z≤z+1⇔z≤1⇔z=1.
It follows that the only solution is (x,y,z)=(1,1,1).
