Answer:AlBERT=150; GEORGE=90

Albert-30=George+30....(.1)eq

A=(G+60)

#2 (G-50)5=A+50......(.2)eq

substitute result of #1 for A

5G-250=(G+60)+50

4G=360

G=90

substitute $90 into equation #1

A=90+60=150

Therefore Albert has $150, George has $90, and their total is $240

Explanation:

let George money will be X and Albert be Y

30$+x=y

x-50$=5y

30+x=y

x=y-30

(y-30)-50=5y

y-80=5y

y-5y=80

-4y=80

y=-20

x=-50
