In each of the following two equations, solve for $x$ and $y$ and choose the correct relation. I. $2 x^{2} - 11 x + 15 = 0$
II. $2 y^{2} - 7 y + 6 = 0$

Question

In each of the following two equations, solve for x and y and choose the correct relation. I. 2x² − 11x + 15 = 0 II. 2y² − 7y + 6 = 0

Accepted Answer

x > y. I: 2x²−11x+15=0 → x = 3, 2.5. II: 2y²−7y+6=0 → y = 2, 1.5. Smallest x (2.5) is greater than largest y (2), so x > y.
