Direction (11-15): Two equations (I) and (II) are given in each question. On the basis of these equations you have to decide the relation between ‘x’ and ‘y’ and give answer.
Q11. I. 99x² + 149x + 56 = 0
II. 156y² + 287y + 132 = 0
if x > y
if x ≥ y
if x < y
if x ≤ y
if x = y or relation cannot be established.
Solution:
Q12. I. 3x² – 4x – 32 = 0
II. 2y² – 17y + 36 = 0
if x > y
if x ≥ y
if x < y
if x ≤ y
if x = y or relation cannot be established.
Solution:
Q13. I. x² - 4x - 60 = 0
II. y² -26y + 165 = 0
if x > y
if x ≥ y
if x < y
if x ≤ y
if x = y or relation cannot be established.
Solution:
Q14. I. 32x² – 68x + 35 = 0
II. 8y² – 14y + 5 = 0
if x > y
if x ≥ y
if x < y
if x ≤ y
if x = y or relation cannot be established.
