Answer:

[tex]16\ ft[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

To find how much weatherstripping will Mike need, calculate the perimeter of the window

so

The perimeter of a rectangular shape is equal to

[tex]P=2(b+h)[/tex]

we have that

[tex]b=3.5\ ft, h=4.5\ ft[/tex]

substitute in the formula

[tex]P=2(3.5+4.5)=16\ ft[/tex]
