Hello! What you can also do is:

16.8 = 2(3.6) + 2w (I know same equation :D)

16.8 = 7.2 + 2w

Then take 7.2 away from both sides: 7.2 - 16.8 = 7.2 + 2w - 7.2

This should be your answer: 9.6 = 2w

Then just divide 2 from both! 9.6/2 = 2w/2

You should get the same answer! 4.8 = w

It was a lot simpler to do it this way! Anyways, have a great day!

The perimeter of a rectangle is the sum of all the side lengths of the rectangle. For a rectangle, we two lengths and two widths so the perimeter can be calculated as:

P = 2l + 2w

We can use this formula to calculate for the width.

16.8 = 2(3.6) + 2w
w = (16.8 - 2(3.6)) / 2
w = 4.8 in

The volume of this box is indeed 84 in^3.  What were you looking for beyond that?

Base:  (7 in)(3 in) = 21 in^2
Height:  4 in
volume = (21 in^2)(4 in) = 84 in^3 (answer)

Can someone explain major and minor arcs in relation to circles.
Lelechka [254]
A Major Arc within a circle is something that that is more than half of the circle, and therefore, larger than the minor arc. The way in which this could be used in an example is; Tony has a pizza with 8 slices, 6 of these slices are pepperoni and 2 are chilli beef. In this case, the pepperoni slices are the major arc and the chilli beef slices are the minor arc.
The Major Arc will always be bigger than the minor arc- whether this is 181 degrees to 179, or whether this is 350 degrees to 10 degrees.
The Minor Arc is always the smallest arc, and this can be explained by; Benedict has an apple pie that has 10 slices, between him and his friends, they have eaten four slices. In this case, they have eaten the 'minor arc'
There is a picture attached, and this is the examples of a major and a minor arc.
Hope this has been able to help you :)
