I believe this situation pertains to "two individuals," though I consider a 16-inch pizza to be more than sufficient. Apologies if I'm mistaken.

The number of people it serves is determined by the pizza's area.
First, we need to calculate the area of both the 8-inch pizza and the 16-inch pizza.


A = pi*r^2
For the 8-inch pizza:
diameter = 8 inches; radius = 4 inches
Thus, A = pi * (4 in)^2 = 16pi in^2.
For the 16-inch pizza:
diameter = 16 inches; radius = 8 inches
This results in A = pi * (8 in)^2 = 64pi in^2.
The area of the 8-inch pizza is 16pi in^2.
Conversely, the area of the 16-inch pizza is 64pi in^2.

Next, we find out how many times larger the area of the 16-inch pizza is compared to the 8-inch pizza.
Thus, ratio = (64pi in^2)/(16pi in^2) = 64/16 = 4.
A 16-inch pizza has an area four times that of an 8-inch pizza.
Since an 8-inch pizza is sufficient for one person, the larger 16-inch pizza can accommodate 4 individuals.

2.6 Puzzle time how can you make sure to start a fire with two sticks?
Svet_ta [12734]

Answer:

"Ensure that one of them is a match"

Step-by-step explanation:

Generating heat through friction requires some practice. By elevating the wood's temperature, it's feasible to reach the necessary ignition temperature.

Successful fire-starting depends on proper technique and equipment. Failures often arise from inadequate approach and gear, which can complicate the learning process.

When selecting wood, aim for the following criteria:

  • Dry tinder
  • Wood should be compressible; if it isn't, it's too challenging.
  • Wood that is moderately strong but not overly tough
  • Avoid sap in the wood

Position the two pieces of wood at a 90-degree angle, resembling a cross. Support one stick vertically on the ground, while the other rubs against it quickly, using intervals.

Underneath, place dry tinder that catches fire swiftly after it's ignited.

For the Puzzle, remember the order of the words:

Ensure that one of them is a match.

Utilize tree wood, apply friction and heat until ignition occurs.

PIT_PIT [12445]
Manuel has opted to construct a fence to define a play area for his dogs, which will be a rectangular shape. Since only three sides require fencing because his house acts as one side of the rectangle, we conclude that the optimal area configuration will consist of two shorter sides each measuring 20 feet and a longer side measuring 40 feet.

in the drawing six out of every 10 tickets are winning tickets of the winning tickets one out of every three awards is a larger
tester [12383]

Answer: P(\text{a ticket is randomly chosen will award a large prize)}=\frac{2}{21}

Given that

Total tickets = 10

Winning tickets = 6

\text {Possibility of getting a winning ticket }=^{10}C_6

For every three prizes, there’s one large prize

therefore,

\text{ Possibility of getting a large prize }=^6C_3

At this point,

P(\text{a ticket is randomly chosen will award a large prize)}=\frac{^6C_3}{^{10}C_6}\\\\=\frac{20}{210}\\\\=\frac{2}{21}

P(\text{a ticket is randomly chosen will award a large prize)}=\frac{2}{21}
