It cost $5 for his brother's ticket.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let,
Micheal's ticket price= x
His brother ticket price = y
According to given statement;
x+y=12 Eqn 1
y = x-2 Eqn 2
Putting value of y from Eqn 2 in Eqn 1
Dividing both sides by 2;
Putting x=7 in Eqn 2
It cost $5 for his brother's ticket.

Answer: 1 1/3
Step-by-step explanation: slope is the difference in y values over the difference in the c values
System of Linear Equations entered :
[1] 5x - 6y = 7
[2] 6x - 7y = 8
Graphic Representation of the Equations :
-6y + 5x = 7 -7y + 6x = 8
Solve equation [2] for the variable x
[2] 6x = 7y + 8
[2] x = 7y/6 + 4/3
// Plug this in for variable x in equation [1]
[1] 5•(7y/6+4/3) - 6y = 7
[1] - y/6 = 1/3
[1] - y = 2
// Solve equation [1] for the variable y
[1] y = - 2
// By now we know this much :
x = 7y/6+4/3
y = -2
// Use the y value to solve for x
x = (7/6)(-2)+4/3 = -1

We know that the sandbox is square, and that the area is 160 sq ft. Since A = s^2 for a square, let's work backwards and find s if A = 160 sq ft = s^2.
s^2 = 160 = 16(10). We do this because 16 is the largest perfect square factor of 160.
Then the length of one side of the square is approx. s = 4√10 ft (12.65 ft)
