Let x be the yearly salary of an architect. Then the yearly salary of a lawyer is 2x-20000.

We can build an equation now! x+(2x-20000)=211000, because the yearly salary of an architect plus the yearly salary of a lawyer is 211000.

We combine like terms to get 3x-20000=211000.

We add 20000 to both sides to get 3x=231000.

We divide both sides by 3 to get x=77000, so the average yearly salary of a lawyer is 77000.

Then, the average yearly salary of an architect is 2(77000)-20000=154000-20000=134000, so the average yearly salary of an architect is 134000.

Architect salary be x and lawyer's salary be 2x-20

Now

  • x+2x-20=211
  • 3x-20=211
  • 3x=231
  • x=$77K
  • 2x-20=$134K
