6. Divide 25 into two parts such that twice the square of the larger part exceeds thrice the square of the smaller part by 29.

Solution:-

Let us assume the two numbers be A and B, B being the bigger number.

As per the condition given in the question,

… [equation (i)]

   

… [equation (ii)]

Now, consider the equation (i),

Then, substitute the value of B is equation (ii),

   

We know that,

   

   

   

   

   

Take out common in each terms,

Equate both to zero,

Therefore, … [because A can’t be negative]

So,
