Answer:

The value of the equation for b is \frac{29}{18}=b.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided equation.

\frac{5}{8}=\frac{3}{4}b -\frac{7}{12}

We need to solve the provided equation for b.

Add 7/12 from both side.  

\frac{5}{8}+\frac{7}{12}=\frac{3}{4}b -\frac{7}{12}+\frac{7}{12}

\frac{5}{8}+\frac{7}{12}=\frac{3}{4}b

Multiply both the sides by 4.

4\times \frac{5}{8}+4\times \frac{7}{12}=4\times \frac{3}{4}b

\frac{5}{2}+\frac{7}{3}=3b

\frac{15+14}{6}=3b

\frac{29}{6}=3b

Divide both the sides by 3.

\frac{29}{18}=b

Hence, the value of the equation for b is \frac{29}{18}=b.

Suppose that a high school marching band has 86 members. Of these 86 band members, 26 are seniors, 17 play the trumpet, and 4 ar
GalinKa [24]

Answer: 0.3023

Step-by-step explanation:

86 band members

26 are senior, 17 plays trumpet. If 4 are seniors and play trumpet, we solve this using the bayes theorem of conditional probability.

Probability of choosing band member that plays trumpet =17/86 = 2/43.

Probability of choosing a senior that plays trumpet = 4/26

Probability that a chosen member is a senior given that he plays trumpet = (2/43)/(4/26)

= 0.3023.
