    If 'x' is a positive integer, then ...

    - - the smallest 'x' could be is ' 1 '

    - - the smallest '3x' could be is ' 3 '.

    - - the greatest '2y' could be is (13 - 3) = 10

    - - the greatest 'y' could be is ' 5 '.

    So, ALL of the possible values of (x, y) are:

    ==> x=1, y=5

    ==> x=3, y=2

    And that's all. There are no other possibilities.
