Problem 1

Baron Münchausen boasts that he knows a remarkable quadratic triniomial with positive coefficients. The trinomial has an integral root; if all of its coefficients are increased by 11 , the resulting trinomial also has an integral root; and if all of its coefficients are also increased by 11 , the new trinomial, too, has an integral root. Can this be true?
