We can use the variable x to represent Statue of Liberty and pedestal. We can use the variable y to represent the Statue of Liberty.

We know that the Statue of Liberty and pedestal is 153 feet higher than the height of the statue. y + 153 = x.

Next, we know the Statue of Liberty and pedestal is 250 feet. x = 350.

We just plug x into our equation. y + 153 = 350. Subtract 153. This gives us y = 197.

The height of the statue is 197 feet.
