Actually Welcome to the Concept of the Factorisation.
Since here both are the roots of the quadratic equation in the factor form, hence
equate them to zero, to get the value of x
hence,
2x-9 = 0
===> x = 9/2
and
3x+5=0
===> x = -5/3
Answer:
750 < p < 1500
Step-by-step explanation:
The total cost of the affair for p attendees is ...
750 +2.25p
The average cost is that number divided by p. The answer choices suggest that "between" means that the cost per person cannot be 2.75 or 3.25. Applying the limits to the average cost, we get ...
2.75 < (750 +2.25p)/p < 3.25
2.75 < 750/p + 2.25 < 3.25 . . . . . . . . separating the fraction parts
0.50 < 750/p < 1.00 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . subtract 2.25
2 > p/750 > 1 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . take the reciprocal*
1500 > p > 750 . . . . . . . . matches choice 4
_____
* Taking the reciprocals of numbers with the same sign reverses their order:
2 < 3 but 1/2 > 1/3

An alternate approach to the solution would be to multiply by p:
0.50p < 750 < 1.00p
To solve this requires it be made into two inequalities:
0.50p < 750 ⇒ p < 1500
and
750 < 1.00p ⇒ 750 < p
Then these would need to be recombined to form the answer:
750 < p < 1500
40 x 5280 = 211200 feet per hour
211200 / 3600 = 58.666 = 59 feet per second
