Solution

To solve this problem, we first need to solve the quadratic equation p² + 3p + 2 = 0.

This can be factored into (p + 1)(p + 2) = 0.

Setting each factor equal to zero gives the solutions p = -1 and p = -2.

So, the values of p are -1 and -2.

Quantity A: p is either -1 or -2. Quantity B: 1

Comparing the two quantities, it is clear that Quantity B (which is 1) is greater than Quantity A (which is either -1 or -2).

So, the answer is B. Quantity B is greater.
