Question

Find the least positive integer such that its square is greater than 5 times of the integer by –6.

A.

3

B.

4

C.

5

D.

2

Correct option is D

Given:
x2>5x6x^2 > 5x - 6​​
Solution:
x2>5x6x25x+6>0x25x+6=(x2)(x3)x^2 > 5x - 6 \\x^2 - 5x + 6 > 0\\x^2 - 5x + 6 = (x - 2)(x - 3)​​
So, the inequality becomes:
(x - 2)(x - 3) > 0
least positive integer is 2.

Thus, Option (D) is right.
