You can go to System Preferences in the Apple menu, then choose users and groups. Find your brother's account in the 'users, groups and login options" list. If you're an administrator, at this point, you can stop interacting with this list and press VO-end to navigate all the way down to the "click the lock to make changes" control. This is where you'll find out if you're an administrator, because you'll have to press this button, then enter your account password to make changes. Then the "delete user" button should be available.
