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

Plug in (4,64) into each answer choice.
A) 4(2)^x
64 =4(2)^4
64 = 4(16)
64 = 64
Answer choice A is correct.
B) f(x) = 2(4)^x
64 = 2(4)^4
64 = 2(256)
64 ≠ 512
Answer choice B is incorrect.
C) f(x) = 4(2)^{-x}
64 = 4(2)^{-4}
64 = 4(-0.0625)
64 ≠ 0.25
Answer choice C is incorrect.
D) f(x) = 2(4)^{-x}
64 = 2(4)^{-4}
64 = 2(0.00390625)
64 ≠ 0.0078125
Answer choice D is incorrect.
Your answer is B<span>) f(x)=2(4)^x</span>
