Create a system if equations to solve this.
First equation:
25m + 24e = 220
Second equation:
m + e = 9
Then you must solve the second equation for a variable.
Change m + e = 9 to e = 9 - m.
Then substitute (9 - m) for e in the first equation.
So 25m +24e = 220 becomes 25m + 24(9 - m) = 220.
Now you can solve the first equation because the only variable in it is m.
25m + 24(9 - m) = 220 (Original equation)
25m + 216 - 24m = 220 (Distribute)
m + 216 = 220 (Combine like terms)
m = 4 (Simplify)
Now plug in 4 for m in the second equation.
m + e = 9 (Original equation)
(4) + e = 9 (Substitute)
e = 5 (Simplify)
m represents Math Books and e represents English Books, so Nicole purchased 4 Math Books and 5 English Books.

Answer:
<em>The height of the monument is 124.8 ft</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Right Triangles</u>
The ratios of the sides of a right triangle are called trigonometric ratios. The tangent ratio is defined as:

The figure attached below shows the different distances involved in the problem. We heed to find the value of h, the height from Daniel's eyes. Then we'll add it to the 6 ft where his eyes are located from the ground.
Taking the angle of 68° as a reference:

Solving for h:

Calculating:
h = 118.8 ft
The height of the monument is 118.8 ft + 6 ft = 124.8 ft
