Answer:
26.8 pounds per foot
Step-by-step explanation:
Since we are looking for 17 inches, we have to find how much each inch of wire weighs by dividing
18.9 / 12 = 1.575
This represents the weight of one inch of wire
Now, we can multiply by 17 to find the weight of 17 inches of wire
1.575 x 17 = 26.775
Lastly, we have to round to the nearest tenth thus our final answer is
26.8
