A Solution Maple Can’t Do
This problem is from Dr. Ehrke.
In this problem of the week we will try to solve a problem that WolframAlpha, Maple, etc.. can’t even do. Find all integer solutions to the implicit equation
An integer solution is a pair (x,y) that makes both sides of the equation equal, but x and y can only be integers. Hint: Consider what the last digit of the right and left hand side would be for different inputs (x,y).
