1. x2 – 18x + 72= 0,
3y2 + 7y + 4 = 0
Answer & Explanation
A) If X > Y
Explanation:
x2 – 18x + 72= 0
(x-12)(x-6) = 0
x = 6, 12
3y2 + 7y + 4 = 0
(y+1)(3y+4) = 0
y = -1, -4/3
Put on number line
-4/3 -1 6 12
2. x2 = 4,
y2 + y – 6 = 0
E) If X = Y or cannot be established
Explanation:
x2 = 4
x = 2 , -2
y2 + y – 6 = 0
(y+3)(y-2) = 0
y = -3, 2
put on number line
-3 -2 2
When y = -3, y < x
When y = 2, y ≥ x
So no relation
3. 2x2 + x – 36 = 0,

2x2 – 8x + 9x – 36 = 0
x = 4 , -9/2
2y2 – 13y + 20 = 0
2y2 – 8y – 5y +20 = 0
2y(y-4) – 5(y-4) = 0

There will be five problems from this topic. It is the easiest one, so you can solve all problems
within 5 to 7 minutes.
In this kind of problems two equations will be given as question, you have to solve the equation
and find the relation between them
1.P > Q
2.P < Q
3.P ≥ Q
4.p ≤ Q
Example 1:P2+13P+40=0
Q2+7Q+12=0
Step1: let us take equ 1. P2+13P+40=0 in this equation coefficient of p, 13 should be split into
two numbers in such a way that multiplication of both numbers should be equal to constant term
40 and addition of numbers should be equal to 13
In these combination 5 and 8 only can give 40 while multiplying, so this is the number we are
searching for,and since the coefficient of P2 is 1 and there is no negative sign in the equation, we
can directly write value of P by simply changing the sign
P= -5,-8
P(P+5)+8(P+5)=0
(P+5)(P+8)=0
P=-5,-8 )
Step 2: Now equ2. Q2+7Q+12=0 similar process applicable for this equation to find Q, here
coefficient of Q should be split into two numbers and multiplication of the numbers should give
12
Combination of 3 and 4 alone satisfy our need i.e. giving 7 and 12 while adding and multiplying
the numbers respectively, since there is no negative sign in the equation,we can directly write
value of Q by changing sign .
Q=-3, -4
P= -5,-8
Obviously P < Q
Example 2: 2p2+12p+16=0
2q2+14q+24=0
Step 1: let us take equ1 since coefficient of p2 is 2,we have to multiply 2 with constant number
16 , now as usual 12 should be split up into two numbers and multiplication of the numbers
should give ( 2*16=) 32 .
4+8 =12
4*8=32
now change the sign of numbers and divide it by 2 since the coefficient of p2 is 2 ,
Thus the value of p = -2,-4
Step 2: now take equ2. And follow the same procedure multiply 2 with constant number 24 . So
addition of two numbers should be 14 and multiplication of numbers should be 48 (24*2)
Numbers are 6 and 8, now divide by 2, since the coefficient of q 2 is 2 so the value of q is -3,-4
here, one of the numbers of p and q are same but other number of p is greater than other number
of q
so ans is p ≥ q
If you have doubt in finding which one is greater, use this technique.
Example 3: x2-x-6=0
2y2+13y+21
Step1: Here constant number and coefficient of x are negative so the combination of numbers
will be positive and negative.
Combination is 2,-3
Value of x=-2 , 3
Combination is (6,7) ,
Y= -(6/2) , -(7/2)
Y= -3 , -3.5
Relation is X > Y
Example 4: 12x2+11x+12=10x2+22x
13y2-18y+3=9y2-10y
2x2-11x+12=0
4y2-8y+3=0
Step2: now as usual normal procedure , here coefficient of x is negative and constant term is
positive so both numbers will be negative
Combination is -8,-3
Combination is (-2,-6)
Relation is x ≥ y
Y3+9.68+5.64 =16.95
Relation is x < y
Y2 +409 = 473
Relation cannot be formed between x and y since x is both highest and lowest one.
1. If the coefficient of x or y and constant term is negative, then one number will be positive and
other will be negative.
2. If the coefficient of x or y and constant term is positive, combination will be positive.
3. If the coefficient of x or y and constant term are positive and negative then the
combination of numbers will be both positive and negative.
The Quantitative Aptitude section of the SBI PO Exam have Inequality questions based on
quadratic equation. In inequality questions, you will find one or two quadratic equations are
given and a relation between X and Y is to be desired. The quick derivation of the values of X
and Y plays a vital role here. In this article, we’ll be provide you with simple and detailed
method by which you will be arrive at the solution in a SBI Po Quantitative Problems in
comfortable manner.
Quadratic Equations
ax2 + bx + c = 0
is called a Quadratic Equation. The numbers a, b and c are called the coefficients of quadratic
equation.
The power of ‘x’ is of second order. Hence, the solution of this equation results in two values
of variable ‘x’ which are called the roots of the quadratic equation.
The roots are called α and β. Also, it’s useful to learn about discriminant of the quadratic
equation.
Discriminant, D = b2 – 4ac
and β =
α + β = -2b/2a = -b/a
And if we multiply both the roots, we’ll get
αβ = 4ac/(2a)2 = c/a
These few facts gives us clearer picture about how to derive the roots of the equations.
ax2 + bx + c = 0
x2 + [b/a]x + [c/a] = 0
Putting values of b/a and c/a, we get the root form of quadratic equation,
x2 + [-(α+β)]x + [αβ] = 0
1. X2 + 12 = 7X
In this, a = 1, b = -7 and c = 12
To arrive at the roots, we’ll have to split up the middle term. We’ll have to break 7X into two
parts, let’s say, pX and qX, in such a way that
(-4)+(-3) = -7
(-4)(-3) = 12
X2 – 4X – 3X + 12 = 0
X[X – 4] – 3[X – 4] = 0
[X – 4][X – 3] = 0
X = +4 and +3
Which is the solution of this quadratic equation. This equation can also be solved using the
discriminant method.
1. Y2 + 30 = 11Y
Y2 – 11Y + 30 = 0
Y2 – 6Y – 5Y + 30 = 0
Y[Y – 6] -5[Y – 6] = 0
[Y – 6][Y – 5] = 0
Y = +6 and +5
So far we have solved only the equations. The final part that remains solving is: what is the
relation between X and Y?
To do this, check the relation between both the roots of the equations one by one.
X = +3, +4
Y = +5, +6
Less than.
Both relations are same. So, final answer is: X is less than Y.
