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.

Lemur [1.5K]

Answer:

5 seats

Step-by-step explanation:

if I'm getting the right idea, the seats are NOT enough

since the number of arrangement of 10 people in a row is

10! = 3628800 which is a lot larger than 30240.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Let number of seats be

10PX = 30240

\frac{10!}{(10-X)!} = 30240

(10-X)! = \frac{10!}{30240}

(10-X)! = 120

(10-X)! = 5!

10-X = 5

X = 5
