im sorry but did you ever get the answer?
This is super simple. Begin with cross multiplying
35/x=7/13 becomes (35)*(13)=(7) *(x)
Then multiply my love muffin, you get...
455=7x
divide both sides by 7
65=x
-or-
x=65
hope that helped :)
x => Hamburgers
y => Hot dogs
x + y = 26
3.5x + 2y = 70
-2x - 2y = -52
3.5x + 2y = 70
-----------------------
1.5x = 18
x = 18 / 1.5 = 12
y = 26 - 12 = 14
They sold 12 hamburgers and 14 hot dogs
An expression equivalent to that given would be 4^8 or also written as four to the eighth power, hope this helped! Please rate my answers.
Work: 4^8 = 4x4x4x4x4x4x4x4
