Arthur brought $32 to the carnival. He bought a hotdog, a t-shirt, and a ticket. The hotdog was 1/2 as much as the t-shirt. The t-shirt was 1/2 the cost of the ticket. Arthur had $2.25 leftover. What is the cost of each of the 3 things? please no link

$8.50,$17,32

Step-by-step explanation:

Hotdog: $4.25

T-shirt: $8.50

Ticket: $17

Step-by-step explanation:

It finally let me post as an answer :)

If we call the price of a hotdog x, the cost of a t-shirt is 2x, because 1/2 of 2x is x, right?

So a hotdog is x, a t-shirt is 2x, and a ticket is twice that again, so 4x.

x + 2x + 4x + 2.25 = 32

He bought a hot dog, a t-shirt, and a ticket, had 2.25 left over, with a total of $32

x + 2x + 4x + 2.25 = 32

subtract 2.25 from both sides, combine like terms:

7x = 29.75

divide both sides by 7,

x = 4.25

hotdog = 4.25

T-shirt is 2x, so $8.50

ticket is 4x, so $17

4.25 + 8.50 + 17 + 2.25 = 32

answer: 4/6 =5/7.5

step-by-step explanation: it is based on scale and the scale between the two is 1.25. the answer is correct but i dont know if i explained it right
