Allright, PLEASE help me!!
I am so stuckishness
"Laura rode her bicycle at a constant rate along a flat road 15 miles long. When the road became a hill, she reduced her speed by 4 mph for the last 3 miles of her trip. The trip took Laura 2 hours. What was the rate of her speed, in mph, on the flat part of the road?"
*deep breath*
Distance=Rate x time
15=X x (2-y)? I don't know how to set the problem up!! Oi! PLEASE can someone help me?

No love for word problems. I tried to set it up, and I got 5.5 mph. I'm pretty sure that it's wrong. I'll check on Doctor Math.
Edit- Try looking somewhere on here.
