Direction (6-11). In each questions, two equations numbered I and II have been given. You have to solve both the equations and mark the appropriate option.
6)
Answer:
I. 2x2 + 9x+9 = 0
x = -6/2, -3/2 = -3, -1.5
II. 15y2 +16y+4 = 0
y = -6/15, -10/15 = -0.4, -0.66
x < y.
7)
Answer:
I. 2x3 = 16
x3 = 8
x = 2
II. y = 4/2, 5/2 = 2, 2.5
X ≥ Y.
8)
Answer:
I. 6x2 – 11x + 4 = 0
6 x2 – 8x – 3x + 4 = 0
2x(3x-4)- (3x – 4) = 0
x = 0.5, 1.33
II. 3y2 – 5y +2 = 0
3y2 – 3y – 2y + 2 = 0
y = 1, 0.666
The relationship cannot be determined between X and Y.
9)
Answer:
I. 3x2 + 11x+10 = 0
x = -5/3, -6/3 = -1.66, -2
II. 2y2 + 11y +14 = 0
y = -8/2, -3/2 = -4, -1.5
The relationship cannot be determined between X and Y.
10)
Answer:
I. 12x2 + 11x+2 = 0
x = -8/12, -3/12 = -0.66, -0.25
II. 12y2 + 7y +1 = 0
y = -3/12, -4/12 = -0.25, -0.33
The relationship cannot be determined between X and Y.
11)
Answer:
I. 21x2 + 10x+1 = 0
x = -7/21, -3/21 = -0.33, -0.1428
II. 24y2 + 26y +5 = 0
y = -0.83, -0.25
The relationship cannot be determined between X and Y.
