Consider the following figure: ![Triangle Diagram](image) The diagram shows a triangle \( \triangle ABC \) with points \( D \) on \( \overline{AB} \) and \( E \) on \( \overline{AC} \). A line segment \( \overline{DE} \) is drawn inside the triangle, parallel to \( \overline{BC} \). Given: - \( DE \parallel BC \) - \( AD = 4 \), \( DB = a + 3 \) - \( AE = a + 1 \), \( EC = 3(a - 1) \) Find \( a \) and \( EC \). (Enter your answers as comma-separated lists. If there is no solution, enter NO SOLUTION.) Input boxes are provided for the answers to \( a = \) and \( EC = \), followed by a red 'X' indicating incorrect answers. A "Need Help?" button is visible below the input fields for additional assistance.
