How to find out number of solutions for equations of type $a+b^2+c^3+d^4 le X$? [closed]
$begingroup$
Given the value of 'X' how do we calculate the number of solutions of the equation
$$a+b^2+c^3+d^4 le X$$
where $a,b,c,d$ are non negative integer values?
What are these type of equations called and the concept of mathematics that deals with these type of equations?
polynomials systems-of-equations

I don't know anything about the background of these equations, but finding general solutions can be done by induction on the degree of the "polynomial".
First consider $aleq X$, clearly this has $X+1$ solutions.
Now consider $a+b^{2}leq X$ which is equivalent to $aleq X-b^{2}$. Then $bin{0,...,lfloorsqrt{X}rfloor}$, so there are
$$sum^{lfloorsqrt{X}rfloor}_{i=0}X-i^{2}+1$$
solutions.
Continue this process to find the solution to the "polynomial" of degree 4.
