Solution of the Diophantine equation 22x+40y=z2

Abstract

Since Diophantine equations play an important role in solving important real-world problems such as business investment problems, network flow problems, pole placement problems, and data privacy problems, researchers are increasingly interested in developing new techniques for analyzing the nature and solutions of the various Dio phantine equations. In this study we investigate the Diophantine problem 22x+40y = z2, where x, y, z are non-negative integers, and discover that it does not have a non-negative integer solution.
