    Directions: In the given question two equations numbered I and II are given. You have to solve both the equations and mark the appropriate answer.
    I. \[{{x}^{2}}+7x+12=0\]
    II. \[2{{y}^{2}}+11y+15=0\]

    A) If \[x\ge y\]

    B) If \[x<y\]

    C) If \[x>y\]

    D)        If \[x\le y\]

    E) relationship between x and y cannot be determined

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

    I. \[{{x}^{2}}+7x+12=0\]
    \[\Rightarrow \]\[{{x}^{2}}+4x+3x+12=0\]
    \[\Rightarrow \]\[x\,(x+4)+3\,(x+4)=0\]
    \[\Rightarrow \]   \[(x+4)(x+3)=0\]          
    \[\Rightarrow \]               \[x=-\,3,\]\[-\,4\]
    II. \[2{{y}^{2}}+11y+15=0\]
    \[\Rightarrow \]\[2{{y}^{2}}+6y+5y+15=0\]
    \[\Rightarrow \]\[2y\,(y+3)+5\,(y+3)=0\]
    \[\Rightarrow \]   \[(y+3)(2y+5)=0\]
    \[\Rightarrow \]               \[y=-\,3,\]\[-\frac{5}{2}\]
