Directions (42-46) : In each question two equations numbered (I) and (II) are given. You have to solve both the equations and mark appropriate answer.
x3=729
y2-15y+54=0
Correct Answer :
If x>=y
Solution :
To determine the correct relationship between and , let us solve both given equations step-by-step.
Step 1: Solve Equation (I) for
The first equation is:
Taking the cube root on both sides:
Step 2: Solve Equation (II) for
The second equation is a quadratic equation:
We split the middle term by finding two numbers that multiply to and add up to . These numbers are and :
Setting each factor equal to zero gives:
or
Step 3: Compare the values of and
We have and the possible values of are and .
- When , .
- When , .
Combining both cases, we get:
(i.e., )
Hence, the correct answer is If x>=y.
