Direction: In the following question two equations numbered I and II are given. You have to solve both the equations and give answers:

I: 2x2 + 11x + 12 = 0

II: 5y2 + 27y + 10 = 0

A x > y

B x ≥ y

C x < y

D x ≤ y

E x = y or relation cannot be determined

Solution

Correct Answer: Option E

From equation I:

⇒ 2x2 + 11x + 12 = 0

⇒ (x+4)(2x+3) = 0

⇒ x = -4, -3/2

Given equation II:

⇒ 5y2 + 27y + 10 = 0

⇒ (y+5)(5y+2) = 0

⇒ y = -5, -2/5

Comparing the values of x and y we get, that relation cannot be determined.
