The architect earns $47000 yearly and the lawyer earns $68,000 yearly.
<h3>How to solve algebra problems?</h3>
Let x = salary of architect, in thousands
Let 2x - 26 be the salary of lawyer, in thousands
Thus, if their salary combined is $214 thousand, then we have the algebra expression;
2x + 2x - 26 = 214
4x - 26 = 214
4x = 214 - 26
4x = 188
x = 47, in thousands.
The architect earns $47000 yearly
The lawyer earns 2(47000) - 26000 = $68,000 yearly
