Question

1. \sqrt{b - 3} = 24\
2. \sqrt{h + 13} = 10

Explanation:

Step1: Solve for $b$: Square both sides

$$(\sqrt{b - 3})^2 = 24^2$$
$$b - 3 = 576$$

Step2: Isolate $b$: Add 3 to both sides

$$b = 576 + 3$$
$$b = 579$$

Step3: Solve for $h$: Square both sides

$$(\sqrt{h + 13})^2 = 10^2$$
$$h + 13 = 100$$

Step4: Isolate $h$: Subtract 13

$$h = 100 - 13$$
$$h = 87$$

Answer:

$b = 579$, $h = 87$
