I. 16x2 – 1 = 0

⇒ 16x2 – 4x + 4x – 1 = 0

⇒ 4x (4x – 1) + 1(4x – 1) = 0

⇒ (4x – 1)(4x + 1) = 0

⇒ x = 1/4, – 1/4

II. 4y2 – 5y + 1 = 0

⇒ 4y2 – 4y – y + 1 = 0

⇒ 4y(y – 1) – 1(y – 1) = 0

⇒ (4y – 1) (y – 1) = 0

⇒ y = 1/4, 1

When x = 1/4, y = 1/4, then x = y

When x = 1/4, y = 1, then x < y

When x = – 1/4, y = 1/4, then x < y

When x = – 1/4, y = 1, then x < y

∴ x and y are related as x ≤ y
