  1. x > y

  2. x ≥ y

  3. x < y

  4. x ≤ y

  5. x = y or relation can’t be established

A Correct answer
Explanation

Equation I: 4x^2 - 43x + 105 = 0 → (4x-35)(x-3)=0 → x = 3 or 8.75. Equation II: 7y^2 - 29y + 30 = 0 → (7y-15)(y-2)=0 → y = 2 or 2.14. All x values (3, 8.75) are greater than all y values (2, 2.14). Therefore x > y.
