Math Problem Statement

Find the olution fir the equation Xrest to n+y rest to n=Z rest to n

Solution

It seems like you're asking to solve the equation:

xn+yn=znx^n + y^n = z^n

This equation is a form of Fermat's Last Theorem, which states that there are no whole number solutions (positive integers) for xx, yy, and zz when n>2n > 2. The theorem was proven by Andrew Wiles in 1994.

For n=2n = 2 (the Pythagorean theorem case):

The equation becomes:

x2+y2=z2x^2 + y^2 = z^2

This has many integer solutions, such as:

32+42=523^2 + 4^2 = 5^2 or 52+122=1325^2 + 12^2 = 13^2

But for n>2n > 2, Fermat's Last Theorem tells us that there are no integer solutions to the equation.

Would you like to discuss the theorem further or focus on a specific case (like when n=2n = 2)?
