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:
1453 cm²
Step-by-step explanation:
The area of a regular polygon is given in terms of its perimeter and apothem by ...
A = (1/2)Pa
A = (1/2)(145.3 cm)(20 cm) = 1453 cm²
The area of the pentagon is 1453 square centimeters.
Answer:
(53.3; 56.1)
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that:
Sample size, n = 41
Mean, xbar = 54.7
Standard deviation, s = 5.3
Confidence level, Zcritical at 90% = 1.645
Confidence interval :
Xbar ± Margin of error
Margin of Error = Zcritical * s/sqrt(n)
Margin of Error = 1.645 * 5.3/sqrt(41)
Margin of Error = 1.362
Lower boundary = 54.7 - 1.362 = 53.338
Upper boundary = 54.7 + 1.362 = 56.062
(53.3 ; 56.1)
