Answer:
Number of hot dogs sold = 56
Number of hamburgers sold = 52
Step-by-step explanation:
Let
Number of hot dogs sold = x
Number of hamburgers sold = y
We can make equation from given equations:
(Hot dogs were sold for $.50 (fifty cents), and hamburgers were sold for $1 (one dollar). The total money raised by your class was $80. )
(Together you sold 108 hot dogs and hamburgers.)
Now we cam solve these system of equations to find value of x and y
Subtract both equations to get value of x:
We get value of x = 56
Now putting value of x in equation 2 to find value of y
So, we get y = 52
Therefore,
Number of hot dogs sold = x = 56
Number of hamburgers sold = y = 52
All you have to do is to reverse the order of the x and y components of (7,2):
(2,7).

Hey there!
Let's first evaluate this problem, and the keyword we need to use. The problem says that out of the total number of bracelets Brianna has, x, 1/3 of them are pink. The reason the word of is so important throughout math is that it signifies multiplication. For example, 1/2 of 10 is 5 because 1/2 times 10 is 5.
Now, to apply that to this situation, we need to create an equation, a mathematical statement that indicated the equilibrium or equality of two values. Since we have 1/3 of all her bracelets, x is four, we can set up our equation. Here's another good keyword- is. Is signifies an equation, because it means "equal to" mathematically. For example, 5 is equal to 20/4.
We have:
1/3(x) = 4
(One-third of x, the total amount of bracelets, is four.)
We don't want that fraction there. In order to get rid of it and keep the expression equal, we multiply both sides by 3. We have,
x = 12
Hope this helps!
