Answer:
560 ft/min
Step-by-step explanation:
Let r represent Samantha's running rate in feet per minute. Then r-230 is her walking rate. We can use the relation ...
distance = speed × time
to write an equation for the total distance Samantha went.
20r + 15(r -230) = 16150
35r - 3450 = 16150 . . . . eliminate parentheses, collect terms
35r = 19600 . . . . . . . . . . add 3450
r = 560 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . divide by the coefficient of r
Samantha ran 560 feet per minute.

Let number=x
(X/2)+6=8
First subtract 6 on each side to isolate X on one side.
(X/2)=2
Now to fully isolate X by itself, just multiply 2 on each side.
X=4
