    Directions: In the following questions, two equations numbered I and II have been given. You have to solve both the equation and mark the correct answer.                                                        [IBPS (PO) Pre 2011]
    I. \[3{{x}^{2}}+29x+56=0\]  
    II. \[2{{y}^{2}}+15y+25=0\]

    A) \[x<y\]

    B) \[x>y\]

    C) \[x\ge y\]                       

    D) \[x\le y\]

    E) Relationship between x and y cannot be Established

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    I. \[3{{x}^{2}}+29x+56=0\]
    \[\Rightarrow \]\[=3{{x}^{2}}+21x+8x+56=0\]
    \[\Rightarrow \]\[3x\,(x+7)+8\,\,(x+7)=0\]
    \[\Rightarrow \]\[(3x+8)(x+7)=0\]
    \[\Rightarrow \]\[x=-7,\]\[x=-\frac{8}{3}\]
    II. \[2{{y}^{2}}+15y+25=0\]
    \[\Rightarrow \]\[2{{y}^{2}}+10y+5y+25=0\]
    \[\Rightarrow \]\[2y\,\,(y+5)+5\,\,(y+5)=0\]
    \[\Rightarrow \] \[(y+5)(2y+5)=0\]
    \[\Rightarrow \] \[y=-\,\,5,\]\[y=-\frac{5}{2}\]
    \[\therefore \]\[y>x\]
