Finding the number of points with integer coordinates of the graph is similar to finding the number of integral solutions of y = ( x − 2 0 1 7 ) 2 0 1 7 − x 2 .
We note that y = ( x − 2 0 1 7 ) 2 0 1 7 − x 2 has integral solutions when 2 0 1 7 − x 2 ≥ 0 . Since ⌊ 2 0 1 7 ⌋ = 4 4 , there are integral solutions for − 4 4 ≤ x ≤ 4 4 or 89 solutions.
Also when x = 2 0 1 6 , then y = ( 2 0 1 6 − 2 0 1 7 ) 2 0 1 7 − 2 0 1 6 2 = − 1 and x = 2 0 1 8 , then y = ( 2 0 1 8 − 2 0 1 7 ) 2 0 1 7 − 2 0 1 8 2 = 1 .
Therefore, the total number of integral solutions is 8 9 + 2 = 9 1 .
