      Question

      I. x2 - 9x - 52 = 0 II.

      y2 - 16y + 63 = 0 In each of the following questions, there are two equations. You have to solve both equations and mark the correct answer.
      A if x>y Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B if x Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C if x≥y Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D if x=y or relationship cannot be established. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      I. x2 - 9x - 52 = 0 => x2 - 13x + 4x - 52 = 0 => x(x - 13) + 4(x - 13) = 0 => (x - 13) (x + 4) = 0 => x = 13, -4 II. y2 - 16y + 63 = 0 => y2 - 9y - 7y + 63 = 0 => y(y - 9) - 7(y - 9) = 0 => (y - 9) (y - 7) = 0 => y = 9, 7 Hence, the relationship cannot be established between x and y.
