- Find all ordered pairs of integers ( x, y ) such that 3 4 = 2 + 2 .
Solution: (0 , 1) , (1 , 1) , (2 , 2)
x + y x + y − 15
The right side is 2 (1 + 2 ). If the second factor is odd, it needs to be a powerof 3, so the only options are x + y = 2 and x + y = 4. This leads to two solutions,
namely (1,1) and (2,2). The second factor can also be even, if x + y − 1 = 0. Thenx yx + y = 1 and 3 4 = 2 + 2, giving (0 , 1) as the only other solution.
