Solution  :
==> 3x^2-9x-5x+15 = 0
==> X = 9/3 ; 5/3 
==> X = 3 ; 5/3 

==> 2Y^2-6y-3y+9 = 0
==> Y = 6/2 ; 3/2
==> Y = 3 ; 3/2 
x y


Ques 8.

x^2 – 18x + 72= 0 ; 5y^2 – 18y + 9 = 0

Solution :

==> X^2-12x-6x+72 = 0 
==> X = 12/1 ; 6/1
==> X = 12 ; 6

==> y^2-15y-3y +72 =0 
==> Y = 15/5 ; 3/5
==> Y = 3/5 ; 3 
X>Y

Ques 9.

4X+ 19X + 21= 0 ; 2Y^2– 23Y + 63 = 0

Solution :

==>4x^2+12x+7x+21 =0 
==> X = -12/4 ; -7/4
==> X = -3 ; -7/4 

==> 2y^2-14y-9y+63 =0 
==> Y = 14/2 ; 9/2 
==> Y = 7 ; 9/2 
x < y
