The special at Big Bob's Pizza which will give you more pizza for your money is Choice #1. Per square inch, Choice #1 will cost less and give more overall pizza at $0.10 a square inch then Choice #2 at $0.13 per square inch. You can find more pizza for your money, by using the area formula for a circle for each pizza and finding the price per square inch of each serving. This is called a unit rate and is the cost per unit.
a. Find the radius of each pizza.
Since a pizza is a circle shape, it has a diameter and radius. The diameter is the distance across the pizza and the radius is half the diameter. We use the radius to find the area.
b. Find the area of each pizza using [tex]A = \pi r^{2}[/tex].
[tex]A = \pi r^{2} \\A = \pi (11)^{2} \\A = 121\pi \\A= 379.94[/tex]
The area of one slice is [tex]\frac{379.94}{8} = 47.49.[/tex]
[tex]A = \pi r^{2} \\A = \pi (3)^{2} \\A = 9\pi \\A= 28.26[/tex]
c. Divide each area by the price.
[tex]\frac{4.95}{47.49} = 0.10[/tex]
[tex]\frac{3.75}{28.26} = 0.13[/tex]
