Answer:
its kinda dificult to explain (easier to show) but ill do my best
Step-by-step explanation:
so for part a you wanna start from the bottom (min) and go acros to the line above 1 then go three lines up for cookies. you should be on 3, 1
for part b its c lin decorates 21 cookies in 7 min
Let x = Parent's age now y = son's age now
Then, x-5 = parent's age five years ago
y-5 = son's age five years ago
So, x-5 = 5(y-5)
Simplify to get x - 5y = -20
Parent's age 8 years from now = x+8
Son's age 8 years from now = y+8
So, x+8 = 3(y+8)
Simplifying, we have x - 3y = 16
We have the system of equations: x - 5y = -20
x - 3y = 16
Subtract the equations to obtain -2y = -36
y = 18
x = 70
Parent is 70 years old and the son is 18 years old.
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.
