In following question, two equations are given, you have to solve them and choose the correct option: x2– 3x – 4 = 0, y2

In following question, two equations are given, you have to solve them and choose the correct option:

x²– 3x – 4 = 0,

y² – 4 = 0

A x = y or relation cannot be determined

B x > y

C x < y

D x ≥ y

E x ≤ y

Correct Answer: Option A

x² - 4x + x – 4 = 0

⇒ x (x-4) + 1(x-4) = 0

⇒ (x+1) (x-4) = 0

x = -1 , x = 4

y² – 4 = 0

y² = 4

y = +2, -2

(x=4) > y= (+2,-2) ---- (i)

x=(-1) < y = 2 ---- (ii)

Hence, relation cannot be determined.
