There isn't a b variable in this equation, but x = 2.5. (:
Answer:
5/6 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
Create a proportion where x is the number of hours it will take to walk 1/6 of a mile:
= 
Cross multiply and solve for x:
1/5x = 1/6
x = 5/6
So, it will take the tortoise 5/6 hours to walk 1/6 of a mile
The answer would be c) 129
For this problem your equation will be x+(x+1)+(x+2)=537
Multiply and Simplify:
x+x+1+x+2=537
3x+3=537
Subtract 3 from both sides:
3x+3-3=537-3
3x=534
Divide both sides by 3:
3x/3=537/3
x=179
179 is the middle number so: 178+179+180=537
180 is the third number.
