A metal strip is being installed around a rectangular workbench that is 9 feet long and 4 feet wide. If the stripping costs $5 per foot, find the total cost of the stripping. Total cost=

If the metal strip goes around the bench, then we are looking for the perimeter.

P = 2L + 2W

P = 2(9) + 2(4)

P = 18 + 8

P = 26 feet

Then, we know that the stripping costs $5 per foot, and we need 26 feet of the stripping.

26 x 5 = 130

Total cost = $130

Hope this helps!

26 is 33.33% of 78

step-by-step explanation:

26 is what percent of 78?

26 is p% of 78

equation: y = p% * x

solving our equation for p

p% = y/x

p% = 26/78

p = 0.3333

convert decimal to percent:

p% = 0.3333 * 100 = 33.33%

what? that isnt a question
