1. **State the problem:** We are given that a small pizza has an area of 730 square centimeters. 2. **What is asked:** Write an inequality that describes $p$, the area of a pizza that is larger than a small pizza. 3. **Understanding the inequality:** If $p$ represents the area of a pizza, and it must be larger than 730, then $p$ must be greater than 730. 4. **Write the inequality:** $$p > 730$$ 5. **Explanation:** This inequality means that the area $p$ of the pizza is strictly greater than 730 square centimeters, so any pizza with an area larger than 730 satisfies this condition. **Final answer:** $$p > 730$$
