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.

Triangle ABC has coordinates A(-2, -3), B(1, 1), and C(2, -1). If the triangle is translated 4 units up, what are the coordinate
DochEvi [55]

Answer:

The coordinates of point A' will be: A'(-2, 0)

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that a translation is basically a transformation that occurs when an object is moved from one place to another place.

Translation does not change the size, orientation, or shape of the original object.

Translating a point P(x, y) 4 units up means we need to add to use P'(x, y+4), that is adding 4 units to the y-coordinate of the point P'(x, y).

Now we have to translate the triangle 4 units up. So, use the formula

P(x, y) → P'(x, y + 3)

Thus, the coordinates of point A' will be:

A(-2, -3) → A'(-2, -3+3) → A'(-2, 0)

Therefore, the coordinates of point A' will be: A'(-2, 0)

<span>Number of bowls left after 1 hour = x - x/3 - 1/3 = 2x/3 - 1/3

</span><span> Number of bowls left after 2 hours = (2x/3 - 1/3) - (2x/3 - 1/3)/2 - 1/2 = 2x/6 - 1/6 - 1/2 = 2x/6 - 4/6 = x/3 - 2/3

keep doing this untill u reach 0 bowls left
