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. $I. (x^2 - 13x + 40 = 0) II. (y^2 - 11y + 30 = 0)$

  1. X > Y

  2. X < Y

  3. X ≤ Y

  4. X ≥ Y

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

E Correct answer
Explanation

Solve x²-13x+40=0: (x-8)(x-5)=0, so x=5 or x=8. Solve y²-11y+30=0: (y-6)(y-5)=0, so y=5 or y=6. When x=5, y=5: x=y. When x=5, y=6: xy. When x=8, y=6: x>y. Since relationship varies (x=y, xy all possible), option E is correct.
