Multiple choice

Two equations (I) and (II) are given in each question. On the basis of these equations you have to decide the relation between ‘x’ and ‘y’ and give answer. (I: x^2 -7\sqrt{7}x+84=0 ) (II: y^2-5\sqrt{5}y+30=0)

  1. x > y

  2. x ≥ y

  3. x < y

  4. x ≤ y

  5. x = y or the relation cannot be established

A Correct answer
Explanation

Equation I: x² - 7√7x + 84 = 0 gives x = 4√7 or 3√7. Equation II: y² - 5√5y + 30 = 0 gives y = 3√5 or 2√5. Comparing: 4√7 > 3√5, 4√7 > 2√5, 3√7 > 3√5, 3√7 > 2√5. Thus x > y always.
