    Directions: In the given questions, two equations numbered I and II are given. Solve both the equations and mark the appropriate answer.
    I. \[15{{x}^{2}}-29x-14=0\]
    II. \[6{{y}^{2}}-5y-25=0\]

    A) \[x>y\]

    B) \[x\ge y\]

    C) \[x<y\]

    D) \[x\le y\]

    E) Relationship between x and y cannot be determined

    Correct Answer: E

    Solution :

    I. \[15{{x}^{2}}-29x-14=0\]
                \[{{x}_{1}}=\frac{29+\sqrt{841+60\times 14}}{30}\]
                \[=\frac{29+41}{30}=\frac{70}{30}=\frac{7}{3}\]
    or         \[{{x}_{2}}=\frac{29-\sqrt{1681}}{30}\]
    \[\Rightarrow \]   \[{{x}_{2}}=\frac{29-41}{30}=\frac{-12}{30}=\frac{-\,2}{5}\]
    \[\Rightarrow \]   \[x=\frac{7}{3},\]\[\frac{-\,2}{5}\]
    II. \[6{{y}^{2}}-5y-25=0\]
                \[{{y}_{1}}=\frac{5+\sqrt{25-4\times 6\times -25}}{12}\]
                \[=\frac{5+\sqrt{625}}{12}=\frac{30}{12}=\frac{5}{2}\]
    or         \[{{y}_{2}}=\frac{5-\sqrt{25-4\times 6\times -\,25}}{12}\]
    \[\Rightarrow \]   \[{{y}_{2}}=\frac{5-\sqrt{625}}{12}=\frac{-\,20}{12}=\frac{-\,5}{3}\]
    \[\Rightarrow \]   \[y=\frac{5}{2},\]\[\frac{-\,5}{3}\]         
    So, relationship between x and y cannot be determined.
