Question

    I. 24x² - 58x + 23 = 0

    II. 20y² + 24y – 65 = 0

    A x < y Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B x > y Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C x = y or no relationship cannot be established between x and y Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D x ≥ y Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E x ≤ y Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    I. 24x² - 58x + 23 = 0 Pairs are -46,-12 Values after changing sign = 46, 12 & after dividing by 24(a) , final values of x = 1/2 , 23/12 II. 20y² + 24y – 65 = 0 Pairs are 50,-26

    Values after changing sign = -50, 26
    & after dividing by 20(a) , final values of y = - 5/2 , 13/10 Hence, no relationship cannot be established between x and y.
