Question

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?

Answer 1

Answer:

$5

Step-by-step explanation:

So we know that altogether Michael paid $12 right?

So if his brother's price is x  then his price is x+2

so 2x+2=12 x=5

Michael's brother's price was $5

and his was $7
