    Directions: In the following questions two equations numbered I and II are given. You have to solve both the equations and give answer.                                                                                     [RBI (Assistant) Scale 2011]
    I. \[{{x}^{2}}+5x+6=0\]       
    II. \[{{y}^{2}}+3y+2=0\]

    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: D

    Solution :

    I. \[{{x}^{2}}+5x+6=0\]
    \[\Rightarrow \]\[{{x}^{2}}+2x+3x+6=0\]\[\Rightarrow \]\[x\,\,(x+2)+3\,\,(x+2)=0\]
    \[\Rightarrow \]\[(x+3)(x+2)=0\]\[\Rightarrow \]\[x=-\,\,3,\]\[-\,\,2\]
    II. \[{{y}^{2}}+3y+2=0\]
    \[\Rightarrow \]\[{{y}^{2}}+2y+y+2=0\]\[\Rightarrow \]\[y\,\,(y+2)+1\,\,(y+2)=0\]
    \[\Rightarrow \]\[(y+1)(y+2)=0\]\[\Rightarrow \]\[y=-\,\,1,\]\[-\,\,2\]
    Hence, \[x\le y.\]
