Instructions

In each of these questions two equations numbered I and II are given. You have to solve both the equations and –
Give answer a: if x < y
Give answer b: if x ≤ y
Give answer c: if x > y
Give answer d: if x ≥ y
Give answer e: if x = y or the relationship cannot be established.

Question 146

I.  $$x^{2}+13x+42=0$$
II. $$y^{2} +19y+90=0$$

Solution

I.$$x^{2} + 13x + 42 = 0$$

=> $$x^2 + 7x + 6x + 42 = 0$$

=> $$x (x + 7) + 6 (x + 7) = 0$$

=> $$(x + 7) (x + 6) = 0$$

=> $$x = -7 , -6$$

II.$$y^{2} + 19y + 90 = 0$$

=> $$y^2 + 9y + 10y + 90 = 0$$

=> $$y (y + 9) + 10 (y + 9) = 0$$

=> $$(y + 9) (y + 10) = 0$$

=> $$y = -9 , -10$$

$$\therefore x > y$$
