Solution

The correct option is D x>y
Equation I
4x + 3y = 40 ...(i)
Equation II
6x - 5y = 22 ...(ii)
On solving Eqs. (i) and (ii), we get
4x+3y=40...×6
6x5y=22...×4
i.e 24x+18y=240
24x20y=88 + ––––––––––––––– 38y=152y=4
On putting the value of y in Eq. (i). we get
4x+3×4=404x=40124x=28x=7
Hence, x >y
Alternate Method
4x+3y=40x=403y4
On putting the value of x in Eq. (ii), we get
6(x)5y=226(403y4)5y=22120925y=221209y10y=4419y76y=4
On putting the value of y in Eq. (i). we get
9x+3(4)=404x=4012x=284x=7
Hence, x > y
