Answer:

s = 3.75

Step-by-step explanation:

Let b = price of a burger

Let s = price of a side item

2b+s = 14.75

3b+2s = 24

Multiply the first equation by -2

-4b-2s =-29.50

Add to the second equation to eliminate s

-4b-2s =-29.50

3b+2s = 24

---------------------

-b = -5.50

Multiply by -1

b = 5.50

Now find s

2b+s = 14.75

2*5.50 +s =14.75

11 + s = 14.75

Subtract 11 from each side

s = 14.75 -11

s = 3.75

Suppose the scientist performs an experiment in which she cools the three gases. Will the changes in temperature be positive or
yaroslaw [1]
In the case that a scientist cools three gases in an experiment, the change in temperature will be negative for the experiment. This is because cooling results in a temperature lower than the original temperature. For example, a gas originally at 25°C when cooled to 20°C has a temperature change of -5°C.
