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.

Preston have to get some correct and some incorrect answers.
So if Angela entered the same restaurant 4 times, we have 4 "instances" of her entering the restaurant.
Each instance, she ordered a salad. The price of this salad is unknown, so we'll say the price is "S".
Each instance, she payed a $5 tip.
So we have 4 instances of spending S, and 4 instances of spending 5.
We know this totals 54.
Knowing all of this information, we can write our equation like this:
4(S + 5) = 54
Divide
S + 5 = 13.50
Subtract
S = 8.50
The cost of salad is $8.50
