The correct Answer is:
To solve the given equations and determine the relationship between \( a \) and \( b \), we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Solve the first equation \( 6a^2 - 25a + 25 = 0 \) We will use the quadratic formula: \[ a = \frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^2 - 4ac}}{2a} \] Here, \( a = 6 \), \( b = -25 \), and \( c = 25 \). Calculating the discriminant: \[ D = b^2 - 4ac = (-25)^2 - 4 \cdot 6 \cdot 25 = 625 - 600 = 25 \] Now substituting into the quadratic formula: \[ a = \frac{25 \pm \sqrt{25}}{2 \cdot 6} = \frac{25 \pm 5}{12} \] Calculating the two possible values for \( a \): 1. \( a_1 = \frac{25 + 5}{12} = \frac{30}{12} = \frac{5}{2} \) 2. \( a_2 = \frac{25 - 5}{12} = \frac{20}{12} = \frac{5}{3} \) Thus, the values of \( a \) are \( \frac{5}{2} \) and \( \frac{5}{3} \). ### Step 2: Solve the second equation \( 15b^2 - 16b + 4 = 0 \) Again, we will use the quadratic formula: \[ b = \frac{-B \pm \sqrt{B^2 - 4AC}}{2A} \] Here, \( A = 15 \), \( B = -16 \), and \( C = 4 \). Calculating the discriminant: \[ D = B^2 - 4AC = (-16)^2 - 4 \cdot 15 \cdot 4 = 256 - 240 = 16 \] Now substituting into the quadratic formula: \[ b = \frac{16 \pm \sqrt{16}}{2 \cdot 15} = \frac{16 \pm 4}{30} \] Calculating the two possible values for \( b \): 1. \( b_1 = \frac{16 + 4}{30} = \frac{20}{30} = \frac{2}{3} \) 2. \( b_2 = \frac{16 - 4}{30} = \frac{12}{30} = \frac{2}{5} \) Thus, the values of \( b \) are \( \frac{2}{3} \) and \( \frac{2}{5} \). ### Step 3: Compare the values of \( a \) and \( b \) We have the values: - \( a_1 = \frac{5}{2} \), \( a_2 = \frac{5}{3} \) - \( b_1 = \frac{2}{3} \), \( b_2 = \frac{2}{5} \) Now we will compare \( a \) values with \( b \) values: 1. Comparing \( a_1 = \frac{5}{2} \) with \( b_1 = \frac{2}{3} \): \[ \frac{5}{2} > \frac{2}{3} \quad \text{(since } 5 \times 3 = 15 > 2 \times 2 = 4\text{)} \] 2. Comparing \( a_1 = \frac{5}{2} \) with \( b_2 = \frac{2}{5} \): \[ \frac{5}{2} > \frac{2}{5} \quad \text{(since } 5 \times 5 = 25 > 2 \times 2 = 4\text{)} \] 3. Comparing \( a_2 = \frac{5}{3} \) with \( b_1 = \frac{2}{3} \): \[ \frac{5}{3} > \frac{2}{3} \quad \text{(since } 5 > 2\text{)} \] 4. Comparing \( a_2 = \frac{5}{3} \) with \( b_2 = \frac{2}{5} \): \[ \frac{5}{3} > \frac{2}{5} \quad \text{(since } 5 \times 5 = 25 > 2 \times 3 = 6\text{)} \] ### Conclusion In all comparisons, \( a \) is greater than \( b \). Therefore, the answer is: **(B) if \( a > b \)**
