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
The simple interest formula<span> allows us to calculate I, which is the </span>interest<span> earned or charged on a loan. According to this </span>formula<span>, the amount of </span>interest<span> is given by I = Prt, where P is the principal, r is the annual </span>interest<span> rate in decimal form, and t is the loan period expressed in years.
I = Prt
I = 5500 (8) (0.025) = 1100 <----second option</span>

The second term would be -3f^3 because when in descending order it is
6f^4 - 3f^3 - 2f^2 + 9f
