    Directions: In each question below one or more equation (s) is / are provided. On the basis of these you have to find out relation between p, q and give answer.                                                                               [SBI (PO) 2000]
    I. \[4{{q}^{2}}+8q=4q+8\]    
    II. \[{{p}^{2}}+9p=2p-12\]

    A) If \[p=q\]                      

    B) If \[p>q\]

    C) If \[p<q\]

    D) If \[p\ge q\]

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    I. \[4{{q}^{2}}+8q=4q+6\]
    \[\Rightarrow \]\[4{{q}^{2}}+4q-8=0\]
    \[\Rightarrow \]\[{{q}^{2}}+q-2=0\]
    \[\Rightarrow \]\[{{q}^{2}}+2q-q-2=0\]
    \[\Rightarrow \]\[q\,\,(q+2)-1\,\,(q+2)=0\]
    \[\Rightarrow \]\[(q+2)(q-1)=0\]\[\Rightarrow \]\[q=-\,2,1\]
    II. \[{{p}^{2}}+9p=2p-12\]
    \[\Rightarrow \]\[{{p}^{2}}+7p+12=0\]
    \[\Rightarrow \]\[{{p}^{2}}+3p+4p+12=0\]
    \[\Rightarrow \]\[p\,\,(p+3)+4\,\,(p+3)=0\]
    \[\Rightarrow \]\[(p+3)(p+4)=0\]\[\Rightarrow \]\[p=-\,3,\]\[-\,\,4\]
    \[\therefore \]\[p<q\]
