  1. If x > y

  2. If x ≥ y

  3. If x < y

  4. If x ≤ y

  5. If x = y or the relationship cannot be determined

Explanation

Solving equation I: x² - 2.8x + 1.92 = 0 gives x = 1.2 or x = 1.6. Solving equation II: y² - 3.6y + 3.2 = 0 gives y = 1.6 or y = 2. Comparing all values: x is always less than or equal to y (when x = 1.6 and y = 1.6, x = y; otherwise x < y). Therefore x ≤ y is correct.
