    In following question, two equations are given, you have to solve them and choose the correct option: x2– 3x – 4 = 0,      y2– 4 = 0

    ক)
    x = y or relation cannot be determined
    খ)
    x > y
    গ)
    x < y
    ঘ)
    x ≥ y
    ঙ)
    x ≤ y

    Explanation

    x 2 - 4x + x – 4 = 0 ⇒         x (x-4) + 1(x-4) = 0 ⇒         (x+1) (x-4) = 0 x = -1   ,  x = 4 y 2 – 4 = 0 y 2 = 4 y = +2, -2 (x=4) > y= (+2,-2)     ---- (i) x=(-1) < y = 2                        ---- (ii) Hence, relation cannot be determined.
