1) Base+Statue=35 2) Base=Statue+15 Substitute (2) in (1) Statue+15+Statue=35 Subtract 15 from both sides Statue+Statue=20 Therefore 2xStatue=20 Therefore Statue=10 Substitute in original equations 1) Base+10=35; 2) Base=10+15 Both confirm that Base=25 Therefore the statue is 10 feet tall and the base is 25 feet
