The number of ordered triplets (x, y, z) such that x, y, and z are primes and x^ y + 1= z is one, which is (2,2,5).
- When z is an even number, the sole answer is z=2 or =1. There is no answer because this is only feasible if x=1 or y=0.
- When z is odd must be even, hence x must also be even, implying that x=2. However, according to this post, if +1 is prime, y must be a power of two. The only y that meets this requirement is 2, hence (2,2,5) is the sole option.
- Thus, the number of ordered triplets such that x, y, and z are prime numbers and the given equation is satisfied is only one.
