document.write( "Hi
\n" );
document.write( "Let x represent her speed uphill
\n" );
document.write( "Question states***  Note:  D = r*t  Distance the same uphill and downhill 
\n" );
document.write( "  x*6 = (x+1mph)*3
\n" );
document.write( "Solving for x
\n" );
document.write( "  3x = 3
\n" );
document.write( "   x = 1mph, speed uphill, downhill her speed is 2mph
\n" );
