Multiple choice

In each of the following questions, two equations are given. You have to solve them and give the answer- $I. (x^2 - 9 = 0) II. (y^2 + 10y + 25 = 0)$

  1. If x > y

  2. If x ≥ y

  3. If x < y

  4. If x ≤ y

  5. If x = y or relationship can not be established

A Correct answer
Explanation

Solve equation I: x² - 9 = 0 gives x = ±3, so x = 3 or x = -3. Solve equation II: y² + 10y + 25 = 0 is (y+5)² = 0, giving y = -5 (repeated root). For both possible x values (3 and -3), we have x > y since 3 > -5 and -3 > -5. Therefore x > y.
