1. x(2x + 3) = 90
   7/√y + 2/√y = √y
   A. X > Y
   B. X < Y
   C. X ≥ Y
   D. X ≤ Y
   E. X = Y or relation cannot be established
   
   Answer & Explanation

   B. X < Y
   Explanation:
   x(2x + 3) = 90
   x = -7.5, 6
   7/√y + 2/√y = √y
   1/√y (7 + 2) = √y => y = 9
   
   
2. 1/x-3 + 1/x+5 = 1/3
   y –  √16 = √9
   A. X > Y
   B. X < Y
   C. X ≥ Y
   D. X ≤ Y
   E. X = Y or relation cannot be established
   
   Answer & Explanation

   D. X ≤ Y
   Explanation:
   1/x-3 + 1/x+5 = 1/3
   x = -3, 7
   y – √16 = √9
   y = 4 + 3 = 7
   
   
3. x² – 30^5/2/√x = 0
   y(55 – y) = 750
   A. X > Y
   B. X < Y
   C. X ≥ Y
   D. X ≤ Y
   E. X = Y or relation cannot be established
   
   Answer & Explanation

   C. X ≥ Y
   Explanation:
   x² – 30^5/2/√x = 0
   x^5/2 = 30^5/2
   x = 30
   y(55 – y) = 750 => y = 25, 30
   
   
4. √(x + 5) = √784 – √625
   y(27 – y) = 182
   A. X > Y
   B. X < Y
   C. X ≥ Y
   D. X ≤ Y
   E. X = Y or relation cannot be established
   
   Answer & Explanation

   B. X < Y
   Explanation:
   √(x + 5) = √784 – √625
   x + 5 = 9 => x = 4
   y(27 – y) = 182
   y = 13, 14
   
   
5. y² – x² = 112
   y – x = 8
   A. X > Y
   B. X < Y
   C. X ≥ Y
   D. X ≤ Y
   E. X = Y or relation cannot be established
   
   Answer & Explanation

   B. X < Y
   Explanation:
   y² – x² = 112
   y – x = 8
   (y + x) (y – x) = 112
   (y + x) 8 = 112
   y + x = 14
   y – x = 8
   y = 11 and x = 3
   
   
6. 480/x = [480/(x – 8)] – 3
   y(10y – 1) = 2
   A. X > Y
   B. X < Y
   C. X ≥ Y
   D. X ≤ Y
   E. X = Y or relation cannot be established
   
   Answer & Explanation

   E. X = Y or relation cannot be established
   Explanation:
   480/x = [480/(x – 8)] – 3
   x = 40, -32
   y(10y – 1) = 2
   10y² – y – 2 = 0; y = 0.5, -0.4
   
   
7. x² =1600, 360/y  = 360/(y +5) + 1
   A. X > Y
   B. X < Y
   C. X ≥ Y
   D. X ≤ Y
   E. X = Y or relation cannot be established
   
   Answer & Explanation

   E. X = Y or relation cannot be established
   Explanation:
   x² = 1600
   x = 40, -40
   360/y  = 360/(y +5) + 1
   y = 40, -45
   
   
8. √2116x – √8464= 0, (625)^1/4y – (1000)^1/3=0
   A. X > Y
   B. X < Y
   C. X ≥ Y
   D. X ≤ Y
   E. X = Y or relation cannot be established
   
   Answer & Explanation

   E. X = Y or relation cannot be established
   Explanation:
   √2116x – √8464 = 0
   46x – 92 = 0
   x = 2
   (625)^1/4y – (1000)^1/3=0
   5y – 10 = 0
   y = 2
   
   
9. (x + 2)(x + 1) = (x – 2)(x – 3), (y + 3)(y + 29) = 360
   A. X > Y
   B. X < Y
   C. X ≥ Y
   D. X ≤ Y
   E. X = Y or relation cannot be established
   
   Answer & Explanation

   E. X = Y or relation cannot be established
   Explanation:
   (x + 2)(x + 1) = (x – 2)(x – 3)
   x = 1/2 = 0.5
   (y + 3)(y + 29) = 360
   y = 7, -39
   
   
10. 9x – 17.45 = 67.55 + 4x, (y – 6)(y – 5) = (y – 4)(y – 3)
    A. X > Y
    B. X < Y
    C. X ≥ Y
    D. X ≤ Y
    E. X = Y or relation cannot be established
    
    Answer & Explanation

    A. X > Y
    Explanation:
    9x – 17.45 = 67.55 + 4x
    9x – 4x = 67.55 + 17.45
    5x = 85 => x= 17
    (y – 6)(y – 5) = (y – 4)(y – 3)
    4y = 18; y = 4.5
