Answer:
21022.
Step-by-step explanation:
Find the prime factors of 10508:
2 ) 10508
2 ) 5254
37 ) 2627
71.
50208 = 2*2*37*71.
Now there is no integer value for a that would fit (a+ 1)(a - 5) = 10508 .
But we could try multiplying the LCM by 2:-
= 21016 = 2*2*2*37*71.
= 2*2*37 multiplied by 2 * 71
= 148 * 142.
That looks promising!!
a - 5 = 142 and
a + 1 = 148
This gives 2a - 4 = 290
2a = 294
a = 147.
So substituting a = 147 into a^2 - 4a + 1 we get:
= 21022.
