1763=5879-4423+307
1763 can be written as x-y+z Where x y z are primes Are there other primes x y z such that 1763=x-y+z? Every integer can be written as x-y+z with x y z primes? Are there others primes x y z such that 1763=x-y+z? |
An easy way we could do this would be to fix one of the values of x, y and z to a particular prime. For example, let's take z = 53, which is prime.
Then your equation becomes 1763 = x - y + 53, or 1710 = x - y which implies y = x - 1710. So we merely need to seek solutions where x and x - 1710 are prime. Using the following Mathematica code [CODE]For[x = 1711, x <= 3000, x++, If[PrimeQ[x] && PrimeQ[x - 1710], i++]][/CODE]I find 90 such prime values. You can replace the i++ with Print[x, " ", x - 1710, " " , 53] to get the pairs yourself. I'll leave it to you to generalize this to other z values, or to translate this to a coding language that your machine can handle. |
