    Directions: In the given questions, two equations numbered I and II are given. Solve both the equations and mark the appropriate answer.
    I. \[6{{x}^{2}}+25x+24=0\]
    II. \[12{{y}^{2}}+13y+3=0\]

    A) \[x>y\]

    B) \[x\ge y\]

    C) \[x<y\]

    D) Relationship between a; and y cannot be determined

    E) \[x\le y\]

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    I. \[6{{x}^{2}}+25x+24=0\]
    \[D=\sqrt{{{b}^{2}}-4ac}\]
    \[\Rightarrow \]   \[D=\sqrt{625-4\times 24\times 6}=\sqrt{49}=7\]
    \[{{x}_{1}}=\frac{-\,b+7}{12}=\frac{-\,25+7}{12}=\frac{-18}{12}=-\,\,\frac{3}{2}\]
    \[{{x}_{2}}=\frac{-\,b-7}{12}=\frac{-\,25-7}{12}=\frac{-\,32}{12}=-\,\,\frac{8}{3}\]
    \[\Rightarrow \]   \[x=\frac{-\,3}{2},\,\]\[\frac{-\,8}{3}\]
    II. \[12{{y}^{2}}+13y+3=0\]
    \[{{y}_{1}}=\frac{-13+\sqrt{169-144}}{24}\]
    \[=\frac{-13+5}{24}=\frac{-\,8}{24}=\frac{-1}{3}\]
    \[{{y}_{2}}=\frac{-13-\sqrt{169-144}}{24}\]
    \[=\frac{-13-5}{24}=\frac{-18}{24}=\frac{-\,3}{4}\]
    \[\Rightarrow \]   \[y=\frac{-1}{3},\]\[\frac{-\,3}{4}\]
    \[\therefore \]      \[x<y\]
