The correct Answer is:
To solve the given equations and determine the relationship between \( x \) and \( y \), we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Solve the first equation \( 6x^2 + 5x + 1 = 0 \) 1. **Identify the coefficients**: Here, \( a = 6 \), \( b = 5 \), and \( c = 1 \). 2. **Use the quadratic formula**: The solutions for \( ax^2 + bx + c = 0 \) can be found using the formula: \[ x = \frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^2 - 4ac}}{2a} \] 3. **Calculate the discriminant**: \[ b^2 - 4ac = 5^2 - 4 \cdot 6 \cdot 1 = 25 - 24 = 1 \] 4. **Find the roots**: \[ x = \frac{-5 \pm \sqrt{1}}{2 \cdot 6} = \frac{-5 \pm 1}{12} \] - First root: \[ x_1 = \frac{-5 + 1}{12} = \frac{-4}{12} = -\frac{1}{3} \] - Second root: \[ x_2 = \frac{-5 - 1}{12} = \frac{-6}{12} = -\frac{1}{2} \] ### Step 2: Solve the second equation \( 4y^2 - 15y = 4 \) 1. **Rearrange the equation**: \[ 4y^2 - 15y - 4 = 0 \] 2. **Identify the coefficients**: Here, \( a = 4 \), \( b = -15 \), and \( c = -4 \). 3. **Use the quadratic formula**: \[ y = \frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^2 - 4ac}}{2a} \] 4. **Calculate the discriminant**: \[ b^2 - 4ac = (-15)^2 - 4 \cdot 4 \cdot (-4) = 225 + 64 = 289 \] 5. **Find the roots**: \[ y = \frac{15 \pm \sqrt{289}}{2 \cdot 4} = \frac{15 \pm 17}{8} \] - First root: \[ y_1 = \frac{32}{8} = 4 \] - Second root: \[ y_2 = \frac{-2}{8} = -\frac{1}{4} \] ### Step 3: Compare the values of \( x \) and \( y \) 1. **Values found**: - For \( x \): \( -\frac{1}{3}, -\frac{1}{2} \) - For \( y \): \( 4, -\frac{1}{4} \) 2. **Compare \( x \) with \( y \)**: - For \( x = -\frac{1}{3} \): - Compare with \( y = 4 \): \[ -\frac{1}{3} < 4 \quad \text{(True)} \] - Compare with \( y = -\frac{1}{4} \): \[ -\frac{1}{3} < -\frac{1}{4} \quad \text{(False)} \] - For \( x = -\frac{1}{2} \): - Compare with \( y = 4 \): \[ -\frac{1}{2} < 4 \quad \text{(True)} \] - Compare with \( y = -\frac{1}{4} \): \[ -\frac{1}{2} < -\frac{1}{4} \quad \text{(False)} \] ### Conclusion From the comparisons, we find: - Both values of \( x \) are less than \( y = 4 \). - Only \( -\frac{1}{3} \) is less than \( -\frac{1}{4} \). Thus, the overall relationship is: \[ x < y \] ### Final Answer The correct option is \( x < y \). ---
