Question

    For each question below, two equations are provided. Solve these equations to determine the relationship between p and q.

    I). p2 = 81 II). q2 - 9q +

    14 = 0
    A p > q Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B p < q Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C p = q or relationship between p and q can’t be established. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D p ≥ q Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E p ≤ q Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    ATQ, p2 =81,  p=+9,-9 q2 -9q+14=0 or, q2 -7q-2q+14=0 or, (q-7)(q-2)=0 or, q=7,2 The relationship between p and q cannot be determined
