Multiple choice

In each question two equations numbered I and II are given, you have to solve both the equation and choose the correct answer. (I.) (x^2 - 1 = 0) (II.) (y^2 + 4y + 3 = 0)

  1. X > Y

  2. X < Y

  3. X ≤ Y

  4. X ≥ Y

  5. X = Y or the relationship can’t be established

D Correct answer
Explanation

From I: x² - 1 = 0, so x = ±1. From II: y² + 4y + 3 = 0 factors to (y+1)(y+3) = 0, so y = -1 or y = -3. Comparing all values: x=1 is greater than both y values; x=-1 equals y=-1 and is greater than y=-3. In all cases, x ≥ y is satisfied.
