Question

    Solve the quadratic equations and determine the

    relation between x and y: Equation 1: 33x² - 186x + 240 = 0 Equation 2: 35y² - 200y + 260 = 0
    A x > y Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B x ≥ y Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C x < y Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D x ≤ y Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E x = y or no relation Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    For Equation 1: (33x - 120)(x - 2) = 0,  x = 120/33 or x = 2. For Equation 2: (35y - 130)(y - 2) = 0,  y = 130/35 or y = 2. Comparison: x = 120/33 > y = 2  and x = 2 < y = 130/35. Answer: E) x = y or no relation
