No, that's not helpful. It would be helpful if you explained your solution to us.

Find the number of ordered pairs (a,b).

 

a+2a+1=b12

1+21+1=18123+23+1=15125+25+1=1412

11+211+1=1312

(a,b){(1,18) ;(3,15) ;(5,14) ;(11,13)}

The number of solutions is 4.

f(x)=12(x+2)/(x+1) grafic

At which integer-x is f(x) a integer?

There, f(x)=b.
