    In the following question, one or two equation(s) is/are given. You have to solve both the equations and find the relation between ‘x’ and ‘y’ and mark correct answer.  I. 15×4x4/7−8×3x4/7=x10/7\frac{{15 \times 4}}{{{x^{4/7}}}} - \frac{{8 \times 3}}{{{x^{4/7}}}} = {x^{10/7}} II. y3+ 783 = 999

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

    Explanation

    We will solve both the equations separately. Equation I: 15×4x47−8×3x47=x107⇒  60x4/7−24x4/7=x10/7⇒  36x4/7=x10/7⇒  36=x107+47⇒  36=x2\begin{array}{l} \frac{{15 \times 4}}{{{x^{\frac{4}{7}}}}} - \frac{{8 \times 3}}{{{x^{\frac{4}{7}}}}} = {x^{\frac{{10}}{7}}}\\ \Rightarrow \;\frac{{60}}{{{x^{4/7}}}} - \frac{{24}}{{{x^{4/7}}}} = {x^{10/7}}\\ \Rightarrow \;\frac{{36}}{{{x^{4/7}}}} = {x^{10/7}}\\ \Rightarrow \;36 = {x^{\frac{{10}}{7} + \frac{4}{7}}}\\ \Rightarrow \;36 = {x^2} \end{array} ⇒ x = ± 6 Equation II: y 3 + 783 = 999 ⇒ y 3 = 999 – 783 ⇒ y 3 = 216 ⇒ y = 6 Comparing the values of x and y, we get, x ≤ y
