The first one x is greater than and equal to 34
<span>The workbench represents a rectangle with two sides 5 feet long each and two sides 3 feet wide each. The perimeter of said rectangle is the sum of the four sides or 5 + 5 + 3 + 3 for a total of 16 feet. therefore the amount of metal tape required is 16 feet.</span>
<span>96/x=100/33
(96/x)*x=(100/33)*x - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
96=3.0303030303*x - we divide both sides of the equation by (3.0303030303) to get x
96/3.0303030303=x
31.68=x
x=31.68
now we have:
33% of 96=31.68
