Sorta pythagoric... (Posted on 2005-09-01) Difficulty: 3 of 5
If x, y and z are integers, 3x+4y=5z is satisfied for x=y=z=2.

Are there any other solutions?

I think the poster means that the case of x, y, z all =2 is a solution, and wants to know if there are any other solutions with integer x,y,z but not necessarily all equal. (Indeed, if x=y=z were a requirement then we'd just have a special case of Fermat's last theorem and we'd know we had the only solution.)
