The area of a triangle is half the product of the base and the height.
Since multiplication is commutative, the following expressions are equivalent:
So, option D is correct

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
Substitute this into the parabolic equation,
We're told the line intersects
twice, which means the quadratic above has two distinct real solutions. Its discriminant must then be positive, so we know
We can tell from the quadratic equation that has its vertex at the point (3, 6). Also, note that
and
so the furthest to the right that extends is the point (5, 2). The line
passes through this point for
. For any value of
, the line
passes through
either only once, or not at all.
