Multiple choice

In every question there are two equations you have to solve and give answer- I. (20x^2 - 17x + 3 = 0) II. (20y^2 - 9y + 1 = 0)

  1. If x > y

  2. If x < y

  3. If x ≥ y

  4. If x ≤ y

  5. If x = y or no relation between x and y can be established

Explanation

Solving 20x² - 17x + 3 = 0 gives x = 3/5 = 0.6 or x = 1/4 = 0.25. Solving 20y² - 9y + 1 = 0 gives y = 2/7 ≈ 0.286 or y = 3/7 ≈ 0.429. When x = 0.6, x > both y values. When x = 0.25, x < both y values. Since x can be greater than or less than y depending on which root we take, x ≥ y is the answer (it covers the case where x > y).
