In each of the following questions, one or two equations (s) is/are given. On their basis you have to determine relation between x and y and then.
I. x2 + 3x + 2 = 0
II. 2y2 = 5y
I. ⇒ x2 + 2x + x + 2 = 0
⇒ x(x + 2) + 1 (x + 2) = 0
⇒ (x + 1) (x + 2) = 0
∴ x = -1 or -2
II. 2y2 - 5y = 0
⇒ y (2y - 5) = 0
⇒ y = 0 or 5/2
Obviously, x < y
I. 2x2 + 5x + 2 = 0
II. 4y2 = 1
2x2 + 5x + 2 = 0 and 4y2 = 1
2x2 + 4x + x + 2 = 0
⇒ 2x(x + 2) + 1 (x + 2) = 0
⇒ (2x + 1) (x + 2) = 0
I. y2 + 2y - 3 = 0
II. 2x2 - 7x + 6 = 0
Two circles with centres O and P intersect each other at A and B. The area of AOBP is 18 cm2. ℓ (OP) = 6 cm and the chord joining A and B divides ℓ (OP) in the ratio 1 : 1. The area of portion which is common to the two circles is
AOBP formed is a rhombus
Hence OP and AB are the diagonals
⇒ area (AOBP) = 18cm2 (given)⇒
18 × 2 = 6 × AB(d2)
⇒ AC = CB = 3cm (∵ diagonals of a rhombus bisect each other)
In ΔACP
AC2 + CP2 = AP2 (= radius)
32 + 32 = AP2 ⇒ 9 + 9 = AP2
Area of the shaded portion
= (area of a sector - area of triangle) × 2

Given question below consists of a question and two statements numbered I and II, you have to decide whether the data provided in the statements are sufficient to answer the question.
The difference between the two digits of a number is 6. What is the number?
I. The digit at the unit place is bigger than the other digit.
II. The sum of the two digits is 12.
Let the digits be x and y.
We are given x - y = 6 (Assume x > y)
From statements I: x occupies units place
From statements II: x + y = 12
With the help of information in the question part and in statemant II, we can find the value of x and y easily because there are two equations to know about two unknowns
But to detemine the number we need the help of statement I
Each of the questions given below consists of a question and two statements numbered I and II given below it. You have to decide whether the data provided in the statements are sufficient to answer the questions.
How is Suniti related to the man in the photograph?
Statements :
I. Man in the photograph is the only son of Suniti's grandfather.
II. The man in the photograph has no brothers or sisters and his father is Suniti's grandfather.
From I, we conclude that the man is the only son of Suniti's grandfather i.e. he is Suniti's father or Suniti is the man's daughter.
From II, we conclude that the man's father is Suniti's grandfather.
Since the man has no brothers or sisters,
So he is Suniti's father or Suniti is the man's daughter.

Feathers recently taken from seabirds stuffed and preserved in the 1880s have been found to contain only half as much mercury as feathers recently taken from living birds of the same species. Since mercury that accumulates in a seabird’s feathers as the feathers grow is derived from fish eaten by the bird, these results indicate that mercury levels in saltwater fish are higher now than they were 100 years ago.
The argument depends on assuming that

Biodiversity banking, also known as biodiversity trading, or conservation banking is a process by which biodiversity loss can be reduced by creating a framework which allows biodiversity to be reliably measured, and market based solutions applied to improving biodiversity. Biodiversity banking provides a means to place a monetary value on ecosystem services.
Two biodiversity banking schemes operating in Australia are the New South Wales Bio-Banking scheme, which commenced in 2008, and the Victorian Native Vegetation Management Framework scheme. Both schemes apply particularly to developers, where biodiversity values will be reduced through land clearing and building development. The framework requires developers to source biodiversity credits through a market mechanism to offset biodiversity loss.
The "mitigation banking" process in the United States applies to impacts on wetlands. It requires that developers firstly avoid harm to wetlands, but if harm is considered unavoidable, then similar wetlands of similar functions and values must be "protected, enhanced or restored" in compensation for those that will be damaged.

It was very hot in the small court room and everybody was feeling sleepy. After a tiring morning, the clerks were anxious to get off to lunch and even the judge must have felt relieved when the last case came up before the court. A short middle-aged man with grey hair and small blue eyes was now standing before him. The man had a foolish expression on his face and he kept looking around stupidly as if he were trying hard to understand what was going on. The man was accused of breaking into a house and stealing a cheap watch. The witness who was called did not give a very clear account of what had happened. He claimed to have seen a man outside the house one night, but on being questioned further, he confessed that he was not sure whether this was the man. The judge considered the matter for a short time and then declared that as there was no real proof, the man could not be found guilty of any crime. He said that the case was dismissed and then rose to go. Meanwhile, the accused looked very puzzled. Noticing this, the judge paused for a moment and then the man said suddenly, “Excuse me, Sir, but do I have to give the watch back or not?”
