    Question

    I. 4x² - 21x + 20 = 0

    II. 8y² - 22y + 15 = 0

    A if x > y Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B if x ≥ y Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C if x < y Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D if x ≤ y Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E if x = y or the relationship cannot be established Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    I. 4x² - 21x + 20 = 0 4x² - 16x - 5x + 20 = 0 4x (x – 4) – 5(x – 4) = 0 (4x – 5) (x – 4) = 0 ∴ x = 4, 5/4 II. 8y² - 22y + 15 = 0 8y² - 12y - 10y + 15 = 0 4y (2y – 3) – 5 (2y – 3) = 0 (4y – 5) (2y – 3) = 0 ∴ y = 5/4, 3/2 Hence, relationship cannot be established between x and y.
