Let the two brothers be: x and y
Their combined savings is $85: x + y = 85
One brother (x), has $22 more than the other (y): x = 22 + y
Plug in 22 + y for x in the first equation
(22 + y) + y = 85
Combine like terms
2y + 22 = 85
Note the equal sign. What you do to one side, you do to the other. Do the opposite of PEMDAS.
2y + 22 (-22) = 85 (-22)
2y = 85 - 22
2y = 63
Isolate the y. Divide 2 from both sides
2y/2 = 63/2
y = 63/2
y = 31.5
Plug in 31.5 for y in one of the equations
x = 22 + y
x = 22 + (31.5)
x = 53.5
One brother made $53.50, and the other made $31.50
hope this helps
