7
⟹
x
=
y
+
7
substituting
x
=

we get
⟹
y

Explanation
Given
x
<
y
<
10
and
x
,
y
are positive integers.
So the maximum value of
y
−
x
occurs when
y
is maximum and
x
is minimum.
Therefore maximum value of
y
−
x
is
9
−
1
=
8
.
Given
s
<
t
<
10
and
s
,
t
are positive integers.
So the minimum value of
s
+
t
occurs when
s
is minimum and
t
is minimum.
Therefore minimum value of
s
+
t
is
1
+
1
=
2
.
Therefore the quantity in
1
st column is greater.
So, option
A
is correct.

Since the root equation is 2
(
x
−
2
)
=
0
defines the root of the equation.
If we divide
(
x

)
by
(
x

)
the remainder is
1
