(Greetings from The On-Line Encyclopedia of Integer Sequences!)
A176680 Sequence of primes that are both of the type 2^n-3 and 3*m-2. 0
5, 29, 509, 536870909 (list; graph; refs; listen; history; text; internal format)

1,1

COMMENTS

Solve[2^n - 3 == 3*m - 4, m];

gives m=(1+2^n)/3.

When that m is an Integer and 2^n-3 is Prime both conditions are met

LINKS

Table of n, a(n) for n=1..4.

MATHEMATICA

Flatten[Table[If[IntegerQ[Rationalize[N[ (1 + 2^n)/ 3]]] && PrimeQ[2^n - 3], 2^n - 3, {}], {n, 2, 100000}]]
