Show Answer
Answer:
Correct Answer: E
Solution:
- I. $ x^{4}-227=398 $
$ \Rightarrow $ $ x^{4}=398+227 $
$ \Rightarrow $ $ x^{4}=625 $
$ \Rightarrow $ $ x=5, $ $ -5 $ II. $ y^{2}+321=346 $
$ \Rightarrow $ $ y^{2}=346-321 $
$ \Rightarrow $ $ y^{2}=25 $
$ \Rightarrow $ $ y=+5, $ $ -5 $
$ \therefore $ $ x=y $
