Problem:
Prove that the equation
has no integer solutions.
Problem:
Prove that the equation
has no integer solutions.
Solution:
Assume that the equation has a solution . Then is divisible by . Since the remainders modulo of the perfect squares are and , it follows that both and are divisible by .
Then the left hand side of the given equation is divisible by and hence the number is divisible by . But this is a contradiction since is divisible to and .
