Within the scope of elementary number theory, we prove that, as the main result, if $1 \leq x < y < z$ are integers such that at least one of $y, z, x+y$ is prime then $x^{n}+y^{n} \neq z^{n}$ for every odd integer $n \geq 3$. This result…

We determine the set of primitive integral solutions to the generalised Fermat equation x^2 + y^3 = z^15. As expected, the only solutions are the trivial ones with xyz = 0 and the non-trivial pair (x,y,z) = (+-3, -2, 1).
