Multiple choice

In each of the following questions (I) and (II) equations are given. You have to solve them and Give answer- (I) (x^{2} - 3x + 2 = 0) (II) (y^{2} - 9y + 18 = 0)

  1. If x>y

  2. If x>=y

  3. If x<y

  4. If x<=y

  5. If x =y or relationship cannot be determined

C Correct answer
Explanation

(I) x²-3x+2=0 factors to (x-1)(x-2)=0, so x=1 or x=2. (II) y²-9y+18=0 factors to (y-3)(y-6)=0, so y=3 or y=6. Both values of x (1,2) are less than both values of y (3,6), so x < y.
