We are given that in the first half of a football match, X was 6 goals behind Y.
i.e. \(๐ฅ_1 = ๐ฆ_1 โ 6 \)
In the second half, Y got k goals less than team X.
i.e. ๐ฆ2 = ๐ฅ2 โ ๐
Since X won the match that means the total goals got by X are more than that of Y.
\(๐ฅ_1 + ๐ฅ_2 > ๐ฆ_1 + ๐ฆ_2\)
\(๐ฆ_1 โ 6 + ๐ฅ_2 > ๐ฆ_1 + ๐ฅ_2 โ ๐\)
โ 6 > โ ๐
6 < ๐
๐ > 6
Hence, Quantity A is greater than Quantity B.
Ans. (A)
