The correct Answer is:
To determine which pizza slice is the largest, we need to calculate the area of each slice from the three different sizes of pizzas. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Calculate the area of the 7-inch pizza:** - The formula for the area of a circle is \( A = \pi r^2 \). - For the 7-inch pizza, the radius \( r = 7 \) inches. - Area = \( \pi \times 7^2 = \pi \times 49 = 49\pi \) square inches. - Since this pizza is sliced into 7 slices, the area of one slice is: \[ \text{Area of one slice} = \frac{49\pi}{7} = 7\pi \text{ square inches.} \] 2. **Calculate the area of the 9-inch pizza:** - For the 9-inch pizza, the radius \( r = 9 \) inches. - Area = \( \pi \times 9^2 = \pi \times 81 = 81\pi \) square inches. - Since this pizza is sliced into 9 slices, the area of one slice is: \[ \text{Area of one slice} = \frac{81\pi}{9} = 9\pi \text{ square inches.} \] 3. **Calculate the area of the 12-inch pizza:** - For the 12-inch pizza, the radius \( r = 12 \) inches. - Area = \( \pi \times 12^2 = \pi \times 144 = 144\pi \) square inches. - Since this pizza is sliced into 12 slices, the area of one slice is: \[ \text{Area of one slice} = \frac{144\pi}{12} = 12\pi \text{ square inches.} \] 4. **Compare the areas of the slices:** - Area of one slice of 7-inch pizza = \( 7\pi \) square inches. - Area of one slice of 9-inch pizza = \( 9\pi \) square inches. - Area of one slice of 12-inch pizza = \( 12\pi \) square inches. 5. **Determine the largest slice:** - Comparing \( 7\pi \), \( 9\pi \), and \( 12\pi \), it is clear that \( 12\pi \) is the largest. ### Conclusion: The largest pizza slice is from the 12-inch pizza, with an area of \( 12\pi \) square inches. ---
