Beter Pai wants to tell you his fastest $40$-line clear time in Tetris, but since he does not want Qep to realize she is better at Tetris than he is, he does not tell you the time directly. Instead, he gives you the following requirements, given that the correct time is t seconds: $\bullet$ $t < 100$. $\bullet$ $t$ is prime. $\bullet$ $t -1$ has 5 proper factors. $\bullet$ all prime factors of $t +1$ are single digits. $\bullet$ $t -2$ is a multiple of $3$. $\bullet$ $t +2$ has $2$ factors. Find t.

Eddy is traveling to England and needs to exchange USD to GBP (US dollars to British pounds). The current exchange rate is $1.3$ USD for $1$ GBP. He exchanges $x$ USD to GBP and while in England, uses $\tfrac{x}{2}$ GBP. When he returns, the value of the British pound has changed so that $1$ GBP equals $\alpha$ USD. After exchanging all his remaining GBP, he notes that he has $\tfrac{x}{2}$ USD left. What is $\alpha$?

Prove that any integer greater than or equal to $7$ can be written as a sum of two relatively prime integers, both greater than 1. (Two integers are relatively prime if they share no common positive divisor other than $1$. For example, $22$ and 15 are relatively prime, and thus $37 = 22+15$ represents the number 37 in the desired way.)
