E Correct answer
Explanation

Equation (I): 6x² - 11x + 4 = 0 factors as (2x-1)(3x-4) = 0, giving x = 1/2 or 4/3. Equation (II): 30y² - 23y + 3 = 0 factors as (5y-3)(6y-1) = 0, giving y = 3/5 or 1/6. Since x values (0.5, 1.33) and y values (0.6, 0.17) overlap in range, no definite relationship exists.
