Correct Answer: 17.(5)

Solution: (5) I. $4 x^{2}+19 x+22=0$ $\Rightarrow 4 x^{2}+8 x+11 x+22=0$ $\Rightarrow 4 x(x+2)+11(x+2)=0$ $\Rightarrow(x+2)(4 x+11)=0$

$\Rightarrow x=-2$ or $\frac{-11}{4}$

II. $2 y^{2}+11 y+15=0$

$\Rightarrow 2 y^{2}+6 y+5 y+15=0$

$\Rightarrow 2 y(y+3)+5(y+3)=0$

$\Rightarrow(y+3)(2 y+5)=0$

$\Rightarrow y=-3$ or $\frac{-5}{2}$
