Directions (Q. Nos. 16 to 20) In the following questions, two equations numbered I and II are given. You have to solve both the equations and give answer

(1) if x > y

(2) if x ? y

(3) if x < y

(4) if x ? y

(5) if x = y or the relationship cannot be established

Ans :

16. I.  x2 - 11x + 24 = 0

       II.  2y2 - 9y + 9 = 0
 

Ans :2     I.  x2 - 11x + 24 = 0

              x2 - 8x - 3x + 24 = 0

            x (x - 8) - 3 (x - 8) = 0

                    (x - 8)(x - 3) = 0

?        x = 8 or 3
 

II.      2y2 - 9y + 9 = 0

    2y2 - 6y - 3y + 9 = 0

 2y(y - 3) - 3 (y - 3) = 0

       (2y - 3) (y - 3) = 0

?        y = 3/2 or 3

So,      x ? y

 

17. I.  x3 * 13 =  x2 * 247 

       II.  y1/3 * 14  = 294 ÷ y2/3
 

Ans :3    I.  x3 * 13 =  x2 * 247 

or x3 / x2  = 247/13

x = 19

 

II.          y1/3 * 14  = 294 ÷ y2/3    

or,   (y)1/3 * (y)2/3  = 294/14

or,          (y)1/3+2/3 = 21

?                      y = 21

So,                     y > x

 

 

18. I. 12 *  4 / x4/7 -  3 * 4 / x4/7 =  x10/7

       II.  y3 + 783 = 999
 

Ans : 4     I. 12 *  4 / x4/7 -  3 * 4 / x4/7 =  x10/7

or,         48 - 12 = (x)10/7 * (x)4/7

or,         36 = (x)7     = (x)2

?           x = ±6
 

II.          y3 + 783 = 999

                     y3 = 999 - 783

                     y3 = 216

?                  y = ±6

?                  y ? x

 

19. I. ?500 x + ?402 = 0

       II. ?360 y + (200)1/2 = 0
 

Ans : 5      I. ?500 x + ?402 = 0

or,                           ?500 x = - ?402

By squaring both sides, we get

         500 x= 402

                 x = ?402 /500 = ± 0.897

 

II.?360 y + (200)1/2 = 0

or,              (200)1/2 = - ?360 y

By squaring both sides, we get

    = (-?360 y)2

                200 = 360 y2

                    y = ?200/360 = ± 0.75

relationship cannot established.

 

20. I. (17)2 + 114 ÷ 18 = x

       II. (26)2 - 18 * 21 = y

Ans :3        I. (17)2 + 114 ÷ 18 = x

                                 289 + 8 = x

?                                        x = 297


II. (26)2 - 18 * 21 = y

           676 - 378 = y

?                298 = y

So,                  y > x
