\n" ); document.write( "Upstream DATA:
\n" ); document.write( "distance = 2 miles ; time = 2 hrs ; rate = d/t = 1 mph
\n" ); document.write( "-----------------------------------
\n" ); document.write( "Equation:
\n" ); document.write( "Let his rowing speed be p.
\n" ); document.write( "p - 3 = 1
\n" ); document.write( "p = 4 mph
\n" ); document.write( "----------------
\n" ); document.write( "His rowing speed in still water = 4 mph
