Answers :

11) Answer: B

3x2 – 5x – 42 = 0

3x2 + 9x – 14x – 42 = 0

3x (x + 3) – 14 (x + 3) = 0

(3x – 14) (x + 3) = 0

x = 14/3, -3 = 4.667, -3

4y2 + 9y – 55 = 0

4y2 + 20y – 11y – 55 = 0

4y (y + 5) – 11 (y + 5) = 0

(4y – 11) (y + 5) = 0

y = 11/4, -5 = 2.75, -5

Hence, the relationship between x and y cannot be determined


12) Answer: A

4x2 – 25x + 36 = 0

4x2 – 16x – 9x + 36 = 0

4x (x – 4) – 9 (x – 4) = 0

(4x – 9) (x – 4) = 0

x = 2.25, 4

2y2 – 25y + 72 = 0

2y2 – 16y – 9y + 72 = 0

2y (y – 8) – 9 (y – 8) = 0

(2y – 9) (y – 8) = 0

y = 4.5, 8

Hence, x < y


13) Answer: A

6x² + 77x + 121 = 0

=> 6x2 + 66x + 11x + 121 = 0

=> 6x(x + 11) + 11(x + 11) = 0

=> (6x + 11)(x + 11) = 0

=> x = -11/6, -11

y² + 30y + 225 = 0

=> y2 + 15x + 15x + 225 = 0

=>y(y + 15) + 15(y + 15) = 0

=> (y + 15)(y + 15) = 0

=> y = -15, -15

Hence, x > y


14) Answer: E

4x² – 13x + 9 = 0

=> 4x2 – 4x – 9x + 9 = 0

=> 4x(x – 1) – 9(x – 1) = 0

=> (4x – 9)(x – 1) = 0

=> x = 9/4, 1

4y2 + 13y + 3 = 0

=> 4y2 + 12y + y + 3 = 0

=> 4y(y + 3) + 1(y + 3) = 0

=> (4y + 1)(y + 3) = 0

=> y = -1/4, -3

Hence, x > y


15) Answer: E

3x2 + 8x – 35 = 0

=>3x2 + 15x – 7x – 35 = 0

=> 3x(x + 5) – 7(x + 5) = 0

=> (3x – 7)(x + 5) = 0

=> x = 7/3, -5

y2 + 2y – 195 = 0

=> y2 + 15y – 13y – 195 = 0

=>y(y + 15) – 13(y + 15) = 0

=> (y + 15)(y – 13) = 0

=> y = -15, 13

Hence, the relationship between x and y cannot be determined.


16) Answer: C

2x² + 13x + 21 = 0

=> 2x2 + 6x + 7x + 21 = 0

=> 2x(x + 3) + 7(x + 3) = 0

=> (2x + 7)(x + 3) = 0

=> x = -7/2, -3

5y² + 11y – 36 = 0

=>5y2 + 20y – 9y – 36 = 0

=> 5y(y + 4) – 9(y + 4) = 0

=> (5y – 9)(y + 4) = 0

=> y = 9/5, -4

Hence, the relationship between x and y cannot be determined.


17) Answer: A

x2 – 20x + 75 = 0

x2 – 15x -5x + 75 = 0

(x – 15) (x – 5) = 0

x = 15, 5

2y2 – 14y + 24 = 0

2y2 – 8y – 6y + 24 = 0

2y (y – 4) – 6 (y – 4) = 0

(2y – 6) (y – 4) = 0

y = 3, 4

Hence, x > y


18) Answer: E

2x – 3y = -1 –> (1)

3x – 5y = 0 —> (2)

(1) * 3 = > 6x – 9y – 3 –> (3)

(2) * 2 = > 6x – 10y = 0 –> (4)

Subtract the equations (3) and (4), we get

= > y = – 3

Substitute the y value in equation (1), we get

2x – 3 * (-3) = -1

2x = -10

= > x = -5

By solving the equation (1) and (2), we get,

x = -5, y = -3

Hence, x < y


19) Answer: E

x2 + 13x + 40 = 0

x2 + 8x + 5x + 40 = 0

x(x + 8) + 5(x + 8) = 0

(x + 5)(x + 8) = 0

x = -5, -8

y2 – 7y – 60 = 0

y2 – 12y + 5y – 60 = 0

y(y – 12) + 5(y – 12) = 0

(y + 5)(y – 12) = 0

y = -5, 12

Hence, x  ≤  y


20) Answer: D

2x + 2y = 30 ——–(1)

2x + y = 22 ———-(2)

(1) – (2)

y = 8

2x = 22 – 8 = 14

x = 7

Hence x < y
