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.
Answer:
The most number of layers he can afford is 2
Step-by-step explanation:
We automatically have a fee of 17 so we know we have 13 dollars remaining. Using this information, we know that one layer is 5 dollars which means we can get 2 layers which is equal to 10 dollars which turns our total fee to $27. Hope this helps!
If you would like to write x = 1/3 * y in general form, you can do this using the following steps:
The general form of the equation is: ax + by + c = 0.
x = 1/3 * y
x - 1/3 * y = 0
The correct result would be x - 1/3 * y = 0.
Answer:
Final answer is c. 15
Step-by-step explanation:
We need to find about what is the first term in the sequence for which d = -2 and a7 = 3
We will use nth term formula of arithmetic sequence.
we have been given a7 that means 7th term is 3
so plug n=7, d=-2 and a_n=3 into above formula
Hence final answer is c. 15
