Equations And Inequations Ques 113

I. $x^{2}=81$

II. $y^{2}-18 y+81=0$

Directions : In the following questions two equations numbered I and II are given. You have to solve both the equations and give answer

(1) if $x>y$

(2) if $x \geq y$

(3) if $x<y$

(4) if $x \leq y$

(5) if $x=y$ or the relationship between $x$ and $y$ cannot be established.

Show Answer

Correct Answer: 113.(4)

Solution: (4) I. $x^{2}=81$

$\Rightarrow x=\sqrt{81}= \pm 9$

II. $y^{2}-18 y+81=0$

$\Rightarrow(y-9)^{2}=0$

$\Rightarrow y-9=0 \Rightarrow y=9$

Clearly, $x \leq y$
