Two cyclists start moving simultaneously from opposite ends of a straight track towards each other back and forth. Cyclists' speeds are constant, but one is faster than the other. The first time, the cyclists meet each other at a distance of \(x\) meters from the nearest end of the track. The second time, on the way back, they meet \(y\) meters from the other end of the track. What is the length of the track?

(1) \(x = 720\) meters
(2) \(y = 400\) meters
