The Solution:
Given:
Let the height of Tower B = x feet.
Tower A = (x +600) feet.
Required:
Find the height of each of the two towers if the total height of the two towers is 1,576 feet.
[tex]x+(x+600)=1576[/tex][tex]\begin{gathered} 2x+600=1576 \\ 2x=1576-600 \\ 2x=976 \end{gathered}[/tex]Divide both sides by 2.
[tex]x=\frac{976}{2}=488\text{ feet}[/tex]The height of Tower A is:
[tex]\begin{gathered} x+600=488+600=1088\text{ feet} \\ \end{gathered}[/tex]The height of tower B is 488 feet
Answer:
Tower A's height = 1088 feet
Tower B's height = 488 feet
