Let’s solve this step by step. We need to find the value of each symbol, then add them up for the final answer.

We’ll use letters to make it easier:
- Let C = coin (with skull)
- Let T = turtle
- Let A = anchor
- Let M = map
- Let H = hook

Now let’s go equation by equation.

---

Equation 1:
21 = C + C + T
→ 21 = 2C + T → (Equation A)

---

Equation 3:
9 = M × M
→ So M × M = 9 → What number times itself is 9? That’s 3!
→ M = 3

---

Equation 2:
A + M + A = 13
→ 2A + M = 13
We know M = 3, so:
2A + 3 = 13
Subtract 3 from both sides:
2A = 10
Divide by 2:
→ A = 5

---

Equation 4:
A + H = 9
We know A = 5, so:
5 + H = 9
Subtract 5:
→ H = 4

---

Equation 5:
14 = C + H
We know H = 4, so:
C + 4 = 14
Subtract 4:
→ C = 10

---

Now go back to Equation 1 to find T:
21 = 2C + T
C = 10 → 2×10 = 20
So:
21 = 20 + T
→ T = 1

---

Now we have all values:
- Turtle (T) = 1
- Coin (C) = 10
- Map (M) = 3
- Hook (H) = 4

Final question:
T + C + M + H = ?

Plug in the numbers:
1 + 10 + 3 + 4 = ?

Add step by step:
1 + 10 = 11
11 + 3 = 14
14 + 4 = 18

✔ Final Answer: 18
