I: x2 + 13x + 40 = 0 II: y2+ 9y + 20 = 0

Direction: Following question contains two equations as I and II. You have to solve both equations and determine the relationship between them and give answer as,

Q)         

I: x2 + 13x + 40 = 0 II: y2+ 9y + 20 = 0

A.            x < y

B.            x > y

C.            x ≤ y

D.            x ≥ y

E.            Relationship between x and y cannot be determined

Sol:

From I =>x2 + 5x + 8x + 40 = 0

=>x(x + 5) + 8(x + 5) = 0

=> (x + 8) (x + 5) = 0

=> x = -8, -5

From II =>y2 + 4y + 5y + 20 = 0

=>y(y + 4) + 5(y + 4) = 0

=> (y + 5) (y + 4) = 0

=> y = -4, -5

Hence, x ≤ y
