Multiple choice

Directions: In this question, two equations numbered I and II are given. You have to solve both the equations and choose the correct option accordingly. I. 2x2 - 13x + 20 = 0 II. 2y2 - 7y + 6 = 0

  1. x < y

  2. x ≤ y

  3. x > y

  4. x ≥ y

  5. x = y or the relationship cannot be established

AI explanation

Factoring equation I gives (2x - 5)(x - 4) = 0, so x = 4 or x = 2.5. Factoring equation II gives (2y - 3)(y - 2) = 0, so y = 1.5 or y = 2. Since both possible values of x are strictly greater than both possible values of y, the relationship is x > y.
