Ⅰ. 16x2 + 20x + 6 = 0 Ⅱ. 10y2 + 38y + 24 = 0

Home » Aptitude » Quadratic Equation » Question

Direction: In each of these questions, two equations are given. You have to solve these equations and find out the values of x and y and give answer
( 1 ) x < y
( 2 ) x > y
( 3 ) x ≤ y
( 4 ) x ≥ y
( 5 ) x = y

Ⅰ. 16x² + 20x + 6 = 0
Ⅱ. 10y² + 38y + 24 = 0

1. 1
2. 2
3. 3
4. 4
5. 5

Correct Option: B

As per the given above equations , we can say that
Ⅰ. 16x² + 20x + 6 = 0
⇒ 8x² + 10x + 3 = 0
⇒ (4x + 3)(2x + 1) = 0

∴ x = -	3	or, -	1
	4		2

Ⅱ. 5y² + 38y + 24 = 0
⇒ 5y² + 19y + 12 = 0
∴ (y + 3)(5y + 4) = 0

∴ y = - 3 or, -	4
	5

Hence, required answer will be x > y .
