For 31<x<y<2, which of the following statements is/are always correct? I. x+x1<y+y1 II. y1+y2<x1+x2 Select the answer using the code given below.
Explanation
For statement II, since x<y and both are greater than 31, the function f(t)=t1+t2 is increasing for t>0. Thus, f(x)<f(y), confirming 1+y2/y<1+x2/x. Statement I is not always correct because x+1/x does not guarantee <y+1/y due to the non-linear nature of the function.
