    3y2 – 38y + 112 = 0
    3y2 – 24y – 14y + 112 = 0
    Gives y = 14/3, 8
  9. I. x2 = 1849,
    II. y = √2116
    A) x > y
    B) x < y
    C) x ≥ y
    D) x ≤ y
    E) x = y or relationship cannot be determined
    View Answer
    Option B
    Solution:

    x2 = 1849
    x = -43, 43
    y = √2116
    y = 46 (root is always positive)
    -43……….43………….46
    If
    a2 = 1849, then a = -43, 43
    and if a = √1849, then a = 43
  10. I. x2 – 565 = 1284,
    II. y = √1521
    A) If x > y
    B) If x < y
    C) If x ≥ y
    D) If x ≤ y
    E) If x = y or relation cannot be established
    View Answer
    Option E
    Solution:

    x2 = 1849
    x = -43, 43
    y = √1521
    y = 39
    -43……….39………..43

  1. Deepak sahu

    First ka mam option E hoga?

      1. Akansha Chaudhary

        mam plz can u explain why in Q.5 answer is option E why it is not option D

        1. x = -9/4, 2
          y = -9/4, 5

          when u put on number line

          -9/4……….2………..5

          Now when x = 2 and y = -9/4
          x > y.

          and when x = 2 and y = 5
          x < y

          So are you able to find relationship ?

  2. asdf

    Mam in Q10 804+505=1369 so roots will be +37 and -37. Ans would be B.

      1. asdf

        Mam earlier it was. Now edited afterwards, thanks for replying.

    1. ครђ

      How 1369?

      It should be 1849 (1284+565) roots will be -43 , 43

        plz check once 2nd question mam

        x = 9/2, 9 = (4.5, 9)
        y = 14/3, 12 =(4.66, 12)

        so here y>x, but answer “e”
        plz…

        1. y = 4.66
          and x = 9

          y > x ???

          1. karthik

            haa haa sorry…i felt -9.. oops…

  12. I believe that avoiding refined foods would be the first step to be able to lose weight. They will taste very good, but prepared foods include very little vitamins and minerals, making you take more simply to have enough power to get with the day. Should you be constantly feeding on these foods, transitioning to whole grain products and other complex carbohydrates will let you have more energy while eating less. Interesting blog post.
