Michael took his younger brother to the movies. michael paid regular price, but it cost $2 less for his brother at the child price. it cost michael $12 total for the movie. how much did it cost for his brother?
$5
$6
$7
$10

The cost of the brother's ticket is $5.

Two simultaneous equations can be determined from the given question

x - y = 2 equation 1

x + y = 12  equation 2

Where:

x = price of Michael's ticket

y = price of younger brother's ticket

In order to determine the cost of the ticket for the brother, subtract equation 1 from 2

2y = 10

divide both sides of the equation by 2

y = 5
