    Gigi's pay is represented by the variable g and Bella's by a

    g=b+5

    g+b=55

    Substitute the first equation into the second to get b+5+b=55, simplify to 2b+5=55. Subtract 5 from both sides, get 2b=50. Divide by 2 and find out Bella's pay is $25. Add 5 to that to get Gigi's pay of $30
