Homework Statement
There are exactly 33 postage amounts that cannot be made up using these stamps, including 46 cents. What are the values of the remaining stamps?
Homework Equations
stamp 1 = x
stamp 2 = y
Im assuming postage amounts range from 1 to 100 cents
The Attempt at a Solution
ax+by=46 has a negative solution obviously. So either a or b < 0. I cannot get any farther than that.
