Problem Statement

Find all tuples (x1,x2,x3,x4,x5) (x_1,x_2,x_3,x_4,x_5) of positive integers with x1>x2>x3>x4>x5>0 x_1>x_2>x_3>x_4>x_5>0 and x1+x232+x2+x332+x3+x432+x4+x532=38. {\left \lfloor \frac{x_1+x_2}{3} \right \rfloor }^2 + {\left \lfloor \frac{x_2+x_3}{3} \right \rfloor }^2 + {\left \lfloor \frac{x_3+x_4}{3} \right \rfloor }^2 + {\left \lfloor \frac{x_4+x_5}{3} \right \rfloor }^2 = 38.
