Storage units are numbered 1 through 50. What is the probability that the operator will choose a unit that is not a multiple of 8?

22/25

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiples of 8 betwen 1 - 50 =

8

16

24

32

40

48

there are 6 multiples of 8

Numbers that are not multiples of 8 = 50 - 6 = 44

Probability  the operator will choose a unit that is not a multiple of 8 = 44/50

Expressing in simpler terms = 22/25

the transverse axis of a hyperbola is the line that contains the two vertices and the two focuses.

in this example (hyperbola of equation x^2/2 - y^2/4 = 1), the transverse axis is the  x-axis  . 

step-by-step explanation:

3< x< 5

step-by-step explanation:

|x - 4| < 1

there are two solutions, one positive and one negative.   remember to flip the inequality when taking the negative solution

x-4 < 1       x-4 > -1

add 4 to each side

x-4+4 < 1+4       x-4+4 > -1+4

x< 5                 x> 3

3< x< 5
