    I.  x2 + 31x + 238 = 0 II. 

    2y2 + 70y + 612 = 0 In each of the following questions, two equations are given. You have to solve both the equations to find the relation between x and y.
    A x > y Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B x ≥ y Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C x = y or relationship can’t be determined. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D x < y Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E x ≤ y Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Answer: B x2 + 31x + 238 = 0 x2 + 17x + 14x + 238 = 0 x(x + 17) + 14(x + 17) = 0 (x + 14) (x + 17) = 0 x = -14, -17 2y2 + 70y + 612 = 0 2y2 +36y + 34y + 612 = 0 2y(y + 18) + 34(y + 18) = 0 (2y + 34) (y + 18) = 0 y = -17, -18 x ≥ y
