Question

    In the following questions, two equations numbered I and II are given. You have to solve both the equations and determine the relationship between them and give answer:

    I. x2 + 24x + 143 = 0

    II. y2 + 12y + 35 = 0

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

    Solution

    I. x2 + 24x + 143 = 0 Pairs are 11 and 13 Values after changing sign = -11, -13 II. y2+ 12y + 35 = 0 Pairs are 7 and 5 Values after changing sign = -7, -5 Hence, x < y
