Equation I is $x^{2} - 12 x + 32 = 0$ and equation II is $y^{2} - 7 y + 12 = 0$ . Pick the correct relation.

Competition practiceQuadratic Comparison

A $x$ ≥ $y$
B $x$ ≤ $y$
C $x < y$
D $x > y$

Step-by-Step Solution

x = 4

or 8;

y = 3

or 4.

x

is never smaller than

y

and

x = y = 4

is possible, so

x

≥

y

.

Answer: A)

x

≥

y
