    Keiko has a total of $5200

    x is the amount of money in larger account

    y is the amount of money in smaller account

    x - y = $900

    and x + y = $5200

    This creates two simultaneous equations:

    x - y = $900 ... (i)

    x + y = $5200 ... (ii)

    Adding (i) and (ii):

    2x = $6100, x = $3050

    y = x - $900 = $3050 - $900 = $2150

    The amount of money in larger account (x) = $3050

    The amount of money in smaller account (y) = $2150
