Answer: oop ;-;

Step-by-step explanation: We have two basic equations

A = B + 826 A is 826ft taller than B

A + B = 1516 Combined height is 1516 ft

Replace A with B+826 in 2nd equation and solve for B

B + 826 + B = 1516 Combine like terms

2B + 826 = 1516 Subtract 826 from both sides

2B = 690 Divide both sides by 2

B = 690/2

B = 345 ft

We know that A = B + 826 so you simply need to do

that addition to have the height of both towers.
