problems like this are common in primary school competitions. are you smarter than only slightly gifted 14 year olds, anons?

there's only one solution, p=5, q=2, r=3. since p = (r+q)*(r-q), r-q has to equal 1. no other set of primes aside from what's mentioned above satisfies this since r - q = 1 implies one of these is even and 2 is the only even prime.

Also 3 + 1^2 = 2^2.

1 isn't a prime number.

It's not prime by definition. Elementary schools teaches that numbers only divisible by one and itself are prime, but that's never been the case. Prime numbers are the building blocks of composite numbers. You can't multiply 1 with anything to get a a new number. While all prime share the PROPERTY that they are only divisible by 1 and itself not all numbers that have this are prime. It's like how all hoovers are vacuums but not all vacuums are hoovers, even though some people use them interchangeably.

That's not mathematics, that's racism.

which would you rather have
>the extremely useful property that every natural number greater than 1 can be represented as a product of primes in a unique way up to the order of multiplication
or
>hehe 1 prime :DDD
this is apparently an impossible decision for some

Write the possibilities out modulo 2:
A) 0+0=0
B) 1+1=0
C) 1+0=1
D) 0+1=1
There are clearly no solutions for A or B since 2 is the only even prime.
For D, you have 2+q^2=r^2. However, there are no such primes since, at a minimum, two unique primes are (p+2)^2-p^2 = 4p + 4 > 2 apart from each other.
For C, you have p+4=r^2. Using a prime gap of d between p and r (so r=p-d), we get the equation (p-d)^2-p = p^2 - (2d-1)p + d^2 = 4. We can solve the quadratic equation for d here; one example solution is (p,r)=(5,3).

>all even numbers share the property of being integers, therefore all integers are even.
Mathematics is all about exclusion.

inspecting the solution of the quadratic all solutions are of the form
q = 2
r = sqrt(p+4)

but it does not rule out further solutions besides (5,2,3)
