Abstract
Suppose and are positive integers, and is a nonnegative integer such that . In this paper, we will prove if and only if . We do this by looking at different cases depending on the values of and . We use varying techniques to prove the cases, such as direct proof, verification through Maple software, and a proof technique found in Moser's paper. Previous results from Hanson, St\u{a}nic\u{a}, Shanta, Shorey and Nair are also used.
