I'd really love your help with showing that the Diophantine 3x2+2=y2+6z3 equation has no solutions.
I know that Diophantine equation of the form ax+by+cz=d iff gcd, but how do I deal with the squares?
Any hints? suggestions?
Thanks!
Answer
If (x,y,z) is a solution, then looking modulo 3 you should have
y^2\equiv2\pmod3
It is then easy to see that there is no integer satisfying this equation.
