Mario Agnello is opening a new pizza shop in town. He plans to offer a twelve-inch diameter pizza and an eighteen-inch diameter pizza. He has set the price of a twelve-inch cheese pizza at eight dollars, based on the amount of ingredients needed to cover that size crust. If Mario would like to keep the pricing proportional, what should he charge for an eighteen-inch cheese pizza?

Hello?

OpenStudy (radar):

We will need to calculate the area of each pizza, we have the diameters of each pizza. Can you give me the area of each pizza?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

do you have the formula?

OpenStudy (radar):

Area of a circle will work. A=pi R^2 R is radius. R will be 1/2 the diameter.

Sorry I had to stop a dog fight. You are correct on the areas. The price of the 12 in. is $8.00. You can now set up ratio $8 : 113 :: x :254 113x=$8 (254) |dw:1379114938673:dw|
