COMMENTS
| Squaring the first equation and setting the result equal to the second, we need d+b+2*sqrt(d*b)=d^2+b -> d+2*sqrt(d*b)=d^2 -> d^2-d = 2*sqrt(d*b)
-> d^2*(d-1)^2=4*d*b -> b=d*(d-1)^2/4 -> sqrt(b)=(d-1)*sqrt(d)/2. Setting d=(n+1)^2 yields sqrt(b)=A027480(n).
This is the case k=2 for FLTR, Fermat's Last Theorem with rational exponents 1/k: Consider x + y = x + y. Then (x^k)^(1/k) + (y^k)^(1/k) = ((x+y)^k)^(1/k).
For k > 2, there is an infinite number of solutions to d^(1/k) + b^(1/k) = c^(1/k). E.g. 8^(1/3) + 27^(1/3) = 125^(1/3) at k=3. However, in conjunction with d^2+b = c, I could not find any nontrivial solutions.

FORMULA
| O.g.f.: 3*x^2/(-1+x)^4 . a(n) = n(n^2-1)/2 = A007531(n+1)/2 . - R. J. Mathar (mathar(AT)strw.leidenuniv.nl), Feb 20 2008

EXAMPLE
| For d=9, b=144, c=225, 9^(1/2) + 144^(1/2) = 225^(1/2) and 9^2 + 144 = 225. So b^(1/2) = 12 is the 4th entry in the sequence.
