Question
I. x2 + x β 42 = 0 II. y2
+ 6y β 27 = 0 In each of the following questions, there are two equations. You have to solve both equations and mark the correct answer.Solution
I. x2Β + x β 42 = 0 => x2Β + 7x β 6x β 42 = 0 => x(x + 7) β 6(x + 7) = 0 => (x + 7) (x -6) = 0 => x = -7, 6 II. y2Β + 6y β 27 = 0 => y2Β + 9y β 3y β 27 = 0 => y(y + 9) β 3(y + 9) = 0 => (y + 9) (y β 3) = 0 => y = -9, 3 Hence, the relationship cannot be established between x and y.
