Multiple choice

In each of these questions, two equations are given. You have to solve these equations and find out the values of X and Y and give answers. I. (3x^2 - 5x - 12 = 0) II. (3y^2 - 19y + 28 = 0)

  1. If X < Y

  2. If X > Y

  3. If X ≤ Y

  4. If X ≥ Y

  5. If X=Y or no relation can be established.

Explanation

Equation I: 3x² - 5x - 12 = (3x+4)(x-3) = 0, so x = -4/3 or 3. Equation II: 3y² - 19y + 28 = 0 gives y = 4 or 7/3. Comparing: x=-4/3 < both y values, but x=3 < 4 while x=3 > 7/3. The inconsistent relationship means no definite relation can be established.
