  • Question
  • In the question, two equations I and II are given. You have to solve both the equations and give answer x2-11x+28=0y2-18y+81=0


  • Options
  • A. x > y
  • B. x < y
  • C. x=y, or relation cannot be established between x and y
  • D. x ? y

  • Correct Answer
  • x < y 

    Explanation

    x2 ? 11x + 28=0

    x2 ? 7x ? 4x + 28=0

    x (x-7) ? 4 (x-7)=0

    (x-4) (x-7)=0 x=4, 7

    y2 ? 18y + 81=0

    y2 ?9y ? 9y + 81=0

    y (y-9) ? 9 (y-9)=0

    (y-9) (y-9)=0 y=9, 9

    So, x<y.
