    Directions: In the following questions two equations numbered I and II are given. You have to solve both the equation and given answer.                             [Bank of Baroda (PO) 2011]
    I. \[3{{x}^{2}}-19x+28=0\]
    II. \[5{{y}^{2}}-18y+16=0\]

    A) If \[x>y\]

    B) If \[x\ge y\]

    C) If \[x<y\]                      

    D) If \[x\le y\]

    E) If \[x=y\] or the relationship cannot be established

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    I. \[3{{x}^{2}}-19x+28=0\]
    \[\Rightarrow \]\[3{{x}^{2}}-12x-7x+28=0\]
    \[\Rightarrow \]\[3x\,\,(x-4)-7\,\,(x-4)=0\]
    \[\Rightarrow \]   \[(3x-7)(x-4)=0\]
    \[\Rightarrow \]               \[x=4,\]\[\frac{7}{3}\]
    II. \[5{{y}^{2}}-18y+16=0\]
    \[\Rightarrow \] \[5{{y}^{2}}-10y-8y+16=0\]
    \[\Rightarrow \]\[5y\,\,(y-2)-8\,\,(y-2)=0\]
    \[\Rightarrow \] \[(5y-8)(y-2)=0\]
    \[\Rightarrow \]            \[y=2,\]\[\frac{8}{5}\]
    \[\therefore \]                  \[x>y\]
