Follow the link To solve Quadratic Equations with the help of Number Line

You have to solve equation I and II ,Give answer
A) If X > Y
B) If X < Y
C) If X ≥ Y
D) If X ≤ Y
E) If X = Y or cannot be established

  1. x2 – 18x + 72= 0,
    3y2 + 7y + 4 = 0

    A) If X > Y
    Explanation:

    x2 – 18x + 72= 0
    (x-12)(x-6) = 0
    x = 6, 12
    3y2 + 7y + 4 = 0
    (y+1)(3y+4) = 0
    y = -1, -4/3
    Put on number line
    -4/3        -1               6               12

  2. x2 = 4,
    y2 + y – 6 = 0

    E) If X = Y or cannot be established
    Explanation:

    x2 = 4
    x = 2 , -2
    y2 + y – 6 = 0
    (y+3)(y-2) = 0
    y = -3, 2
    put on number line
    -3                     -2                   2
    When y = -3, y < x
    When y = 2, y ≥ x
    So no relation

  3. 2x2 + x – 36 = 0,
    2y2 – 13y + 20 = 0

    E) If X = Y or cannot be established
    Explanation:

    2x2 + x – 36 = 0
    2x2 – 8x + 9x – 36 = 0
    x = 4 , -9/2
    2y2 – 13y + 20 = 0
    2y2 – 8y – 5y +20 = 0
    2y(y-4) – 5(y-4) = 0
    y = 4, 5/2
    put on number line
    -9/2                     5/2                         4

  4. x2 – 5x = 0,
    2y2 + 7y – 4 = 0

    E) If X = Y or cannot be established
    Explanation:

    x2 – 5x = 0
    x(x-5) = 0
    x = 0, 5
    2y2 + 7y – 4 = 0
    2y2 + 8y – y – 4 = 0
    y = -4, 1/2
    put on number line
    -4               0                    1/2                    5

  5. 2x2 + 5x + 2= 0,
    2y2 + 19y + 45 = 0

    A) If X > Y
    Explanation:

    2x2 + 5x + 2= 0
    (2x+1)(x+2) =0
    X= -1/2, -2
    2y2 + 19y + 45 = 0
    (2y+10)(2y+9) = 0
    Y= -10/2, -9/2 = -5, -4.5
    Put on number line
    -5                  -4.5                      -2                        -1/2

  6. x2 + x – 20 = 0,
    y2 – 13y + 40 = 0

    B) If X < Y
    Explanation:

    x2 + x – 20 = 0
    (x+5)(x-4) = 0
    x = -5, 4
    y2 – 13y + 40 = 0
    (y-5)(y-8) = 0
    y = 5, 8

  7. x2 – 11x + 24 = 0,
    y2 + 9y + 18 = 0

    A) If X > Y
    Explanation:

    x2 – 11x + 24 = 0
    (x-3)(x-8) = 0
    x = 3, 8
    y2 + 9y + 18 = 0
    (y+3)(y+6) = 0
    y = -3, -6
    put on number line
    -6                -3                  3                      8

  8. 3x2 + 8x + 5 = 0,
    2y2 + y – 1 = 0

    D) If X ≤ Y
    Explanation:

    3x2 + 8x + 5 = 0
    3x2 + 3x + 5x + 5 = 0
    x = -1, -5/3
    2y2 + y – 1 = 0
    2y2 + 2y – y -1 = 0
    y = -1, 1/2
    put on number line
    -5/3                     -1                   1/2

  9. 3x + 2y = 16,
