Can someone go answer my last question it for 30 points

Ifigured out the question and i dont know what to put here

Abarbecue sold 26 hamburgers and hot dogs. hamburgers sell for $3.50 each and hot dogs sell for $2.00 each. if the barbecue made $70 in sales, determine and state the number of hot dogs sold.

1- what do you think the product of a nonzero rational number and an irrational number is? is it rational or irrational? make use of variables, the closure property of integers, and possibly a proof by contradiction to prove your hypothesis.2- why do we have to specify that the rational number must be nonzero when we determine what the product of a nonzero rational number and an irrational number is? if the rational number were 0, would it give us the same result we found in the first question?
