In the following question two equations numbered I and II are given. You have to solve both the Equations and ____ Give answer
I. \( \Large x^{2} \) - 9x + 20 = 0
II. \( \Large y^{2} \) - 13y + 42 = 0
Correct Answer: Description for Correct answer:
I. \( \Large x^{2} \) - 9x + 20 = 0
=> \( \Large x^{2} \) - 5x - 4x + 20 = 0
=> x ( x - 5 ) - 4 ( x - 5 ) = 0
=> ( x - 5 ) ( x - 4 ) = 0
\( \Large \therefore \) x = 5 or 4
II. \( \Large y^{2} \) - 7y - 6y + 42 = 0
=> y ( y - 7 ) - 6 ( y - 7 ) = 0
-> ( y - 6 ) ( y - 7 ) = 0
\( \Large \therefore \) y = 6 or 7
clearly, x < y
