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: 
Step-by-step explanation:
Given : The probability of a correct classification of any part is : p=0.96
sample size : n= 3
The formula to find the mean and variance for binomial distribution is given by :-

Let the random variable X denote the number of parts that are correctly classified.
The, for the given situation, we have

Hence, the mean and variance of X are 2.88 and 0.115 respectively.

Answer:
x>3
Step-by-step explanation:
8x - 2x > 12+ 6
-> 6x > 18
-> x > 3
