Question

    In the following questions, two equations numbered I and II are given. You have to solve both the equations and find out the correct option. Give answer if ;

    I. x ² + 5 x  + 6 = 0                 

    II. y²+ 7 y  + 12= 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 relationship between between x and y cannot be established Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    I. x ² + 5 x  + 6 = 0 ( x + 3) ( x + 2) = 0 x = -3, -2 II.  y²+ 7 y  + 12= 0 ( y  + 4) ( y  + 3)  = 0 y = -3, -4 Hence, x ≥ y
