How did you get to 2 9 sin ( x + θ ) ? I understand that the other side of the equation is obtained by completing the square, but what trig identity did you use for the left-hand side?

just write it in the form of 2 9 2 0 sin ( x ) + 2 9 2 1 cos ( x ) . So, we can treat the two fractions just like a trigonometric value of some angle,say , θ
shit tht !!!! i tried 641 first ,
Was it in radians ! Ah! I thought it was in degrees

First, we ought to change the equation in some ways just to make it easy to solve.
2 9 sin ( x + θ ) = ( 9 y − 1 ) 2 + 2 9 where θ = arctan ( 2 0 2 1 )
Then, we see that the minimum of quadratic equation is equal to the maximum of the trigonometric function. So, these two function will be equal if and only if y = 9 1 and x + θ = ( 2 n + 2 1 ) π
When x = 2 0 1 5 , n m a x = 3 2 0
When x = − 2 0 1 5 , n m i n = − 3 2 1
Hence, the numbers of order pair is N ( ( x , y ) ) = 3 2 0 + 3 2 1 + 1 = 6 4 2
