Yes you have a good example.
x = number of cookies
2*x = total amount spent on cookies at $2 each
2x-3 = amount you pay after the $3 discount is applied one time for the entire order
-------------
a more numeric example may be this
Lets say you bought 12 cookies, so x = 12
This means it costs 2*x = 2*12 = 24 dollars total if the discount doesnt apply
However, the 3 dollar discount is there, so the grand total is 24-3 = 21 dollars.

The inequality is all real numbers.
<h3>What is inequality?</h3>
A statement of an order relationship—greater than, greater than or equal to, less than, or less than or equal to—between two numbers or algebraic expressions.
Given:
|3x|≥0
3x = 0
Divide both sides of the equation by the coefficient of variable
x= 0/3
x=0 = RHS

Answer:
(a) 150
(b) 384
(c) 84
(d) 261
(e ) 480
Step-by-step explanation:
(a)
Let 'a' be a number such that the half of his third is 25; i.e.
Hence, the number is 150.
(b)
Let 'b' be the number such that the quarter of his half is 48 i.e.

Hence the number is 384.
(c)
Let 'c' be the number such that the third quarter or, increased by 17 is 80.

Hence, the number is 84.
(d)
Let 'd' be the number such that its triplet, reduced by 28 is 755

Hence the number is 261.
(e
Let 'e' be the number such that double his third, increased by 80 is 400.

Hence, the value of the number is 480.
