Let 'x' be the distance from THE far bank where 700 is the distance to the NEAR bank
boat one has travelled 700 (rate = 700/unit time) boat two has travelled x rate = x / unit time
boat one then travels x + 400 more and boat two travels 700 + (700+x -400) more when they meet
The time is the same rate x time = distance distance/rate = time equate the distances divided by the respective rates
(700 + x + 400)/700 = ( x + 700 + (700+x-400) )/x
1100x + x^2 = 1400x + 700000
x^2-300x -700000 = 0 quadratic formula yields x = 1000
One boat travels 700 the other 1000 whe they first meet.....width of river = 700+ 1000 = 1700 m
12 inches = 1 foot
thus 47 feet 3 inches = (47+3/12) feet =47.25 feet
Answer:
The width is 35 cm.
The length is 25 cm.

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Lines form 180 degrees on either side. The negative sign simply implies direction (clockwise instead of counter-clockwise), which is negligible as 180 is exactly half of 360 so you'd form the same line.
6 groups of 3 6 times 3 which equals 18
and 18 divided by 4 is 4.5 so it takes 5 cars.
