    Directions: In these questions two equations numbered I and II are given. You have to solve both the equations and give answer.                                                                                                                          [IBPS (SO) 2014]
    I. \[{{x}^{2}}+5x+6=0\]       
    II. \[4{{y}^{2}}+24y+35=0\]

    A) If \[x>y\]                      

    B) If \[x\le y\]

    C) If \[x<y\]                      

    D) If \[x\ge y\]

    E) If relationship between x and y cannot be established

    Correct Answer: E

    Solution :

    I. \[{{x}^{2}}+5x+6=0\]
    \[\Rightarrow \]\[{{x}^{2}}+3x+2x+6=0\]
    \[\Rightarrow \]\[x\,\,(x+3)+2\,\,(x+3)=0\]
    \[\Rightarrow \]\[(x+2)(x+3)=0\]
    \[\therefore \]\[x=-\,\,2,\]\[-\,\,3\]
    II. \[4{{y}^{2}}+24y+35=0\]
    \[\Rightarrow \]\[4{{y}^{2}}+14y+10y+35=0\]
    \[\Rightarrow \]\[2y\,\,(2y+7)+5\,\,(2y+7)=0\]
    \[\Rightarrow \] \[(2y+5)(2y+7)=0\]
    \[\therefore \]                \[y=-\frac{5}{2},\]\[-\frac{7}{2}\]
    Hence, relationship between x and y cannot be established.
