In each of these, solve both equations and choose the correct relation between $x$ and $y$ . I. $x^{2} - 3 x - 10 = 0$
II. $y^{2} + 5 y + 6 = 0$

Question

In each of these, solve both equations and choose the correct relation between x and y. I. x² − 3x − 10 = 0 II. y² + 5y + 6 = 0

Accepted Answer

x ≥ y. x = 5 or −2; y = −2 or −3. Every x value is greater than or equal to every y value, so x ≥ y.
