1mi = 5280feet
 The first thing you should do in this case is to calculate the perimeter of the rectangle which will be given by:
 P = 2 * L + 2 * W
 Where
 L = long
 W = width
 Calculating we have:
 P = 2 * (1/4) + 2 * (1/8)
 P = 1/2 + 1/4
 P = 3/4 mi
 To calculate this distance to feet we have to use the following expression:
 (3/4) / (x) = 1/5280

tatyana61 [14]

Answer:

Population.

Step-by-step explanation:

Population can be defined as a collection or set of units or entities from whom we got the data.

This ultimately implies that, a population is the larger set from which other units can be picked from.

Hence, a population is an entire collection of outcomes or objects from which we can obtain or collect data. For example, the number of new born babies in a hospital, a country and the total number of football players in a soccer league.

Population = Movies.

Subset (sample) = comedy movies, horror movies, romance movies, and action movies.

In a right –angled triangle, the length of hypotenuse and shorter sides are 13 cm and 5 cm respectively. Work out the other side
stellarik [79]

Answer: The other side is 12 cm.

Step-by-step explanation:

  • a^{2} + b^{2} = c^{2}
  • a^{2} + (5)^{2} = (13)^{2}
  • a^{2} + 25 = 169
  • a^{2} = 144
  • a = \sqrt{144}
  • a = 12

3.5<br><br> 11.5<br><br> 28<br><br> 33<br> please help
IgorC [24]

Answer:

28

Step-by-step explanation:

First, find the ratio between the triangles. To do this, divide any side of the big triangle by corresponding side in the small triangle. I chose 35. So, 35/10 = 3.5. 3.5 is the ratio between the triangles. Multiply 3.5 by 8 to get 28, the length of the missing side. :)
