It's a bit tricky because if you assume that x must be an integer, then there are 18 possible values of y.
However, since y = 2x + 20, for every "half" integer value of x (e.g., when x = 0.5, 1.5), we get an integer value for y.
E.g., if x = 0.5, y = 2(0.5)+20 = 21
Since 21 is an integer, it satisfies the given constraints.
Therefore, the minimum possible value of x is 0.5 and the max is 18.5, and there are 18*2 = 36 total possible values of y.
