For the two given equations I and II.
Give answer a: if p is greater than q.
Give answer b: if p is smaller than q.
Give answer c: if p is equal to q.
Give answer d: if p is either equal to or greater than q.
Give answer e: if p is either equal to or smaller than q.
I : $$3p + 2q = 58$$ ------------Eqn(1)
II : $$4p + 4q = 92$$
=> $$2p + 2q = 46$$ -----------Eqn (2)
Subtracting eqn(2) from eqn(1)
=> $$3p - 2p = 58 - 46$$
=> $$p = 12$$
and $$q = 11$$
$$\therefore p > q$$
