Six. (25 points) Let be a positive integer, and the integer be a root of the equation . Find all pairs that satisfy the condition. (Provided by Lu Xiushuang)
Solution
Six, since is a root of the equation, then
which means
From this, we get .
If is even, then the left side of the equation is a multiple of 4, while the right side is not, leading to a contradiction. Therefore, is odd.
When is odd, and have only one that is a multiple of 3.
If is a multiple of 3, then
(discard), .
When , .
If is a multiple of 3, then
