  1. If x > y

  2. If x ≥ y

  3. If x < y

  4. If x ≤ y

  5. If x = y or the relationship cannot be determined

B Correct answer
Explanation

Solving the first equation gives x = 23 or x = 3. Solving the second equation gives y = 3 or y = 1.75. When x = 23, it is greater than both y values. When x = 3 and y = 3, they are equal. Therefore x is always greater than or equal to y.
