Prime nos., apart from 2, are all odd nos. And in this case, z cannot be equal to 2 as x^y must not be equal to 1.
∴z is odd, x^y is even, and , as for "odd to the power odd" results in odd nos., which does not match the result that x^y should be odd. Also odd square also results in odd. So, there exists only one case where x=2
Consider the situation 2^n+1 is a multiple of 3 for all odd n
n=1
LHS=3=3x1
P(1) is true
Assume that P(k) is true where k is an odd integer.
i.e. 2^k+1=3M is true, where M is a odd no.
For n=k+2
2^(k+2)+1
=4(2^k)+1
=4(3M-1)+1
=12M-3
=3(4M-1), which is divisible by 3
∴P(k+1) is true
By MI, the statement that 2^n+1 is divisible by 3 is true for all odd nos. n
∴There exists contradiction for the situation as from the above MI, it is proved that z is a multiple of 3
∴There is no soultion
