15 Asked to solve the equation p² – 11p + 28 = 2 . jai wrote the work below: Line 1 p2 - 11p + 28 = 2 Line 2 (p - 7)(p – 4) = 2 Line 3 (p - 7) = 2 or (p- 4) = 2 Line 4 p = 9 or p= 6 Which statement about Jal's work is true? Jai is incorrect. He can't solve by factoring unless one side of the equation is equal to zero. Jai is incorrect. He should have factored Line 2 as (p + 7) (p + 4) in order to follow rational number rules. © jai is incorrect. The answer should bep=7 or p =4 based on his work in Line 2. Jal is correct because he factored the trinomial p- 11p + 28 and found two solutions.
