Answer 2

Answer:

$y=-2x+24$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x------> the number of days

y----->the number of cookies which are left at the end of each day

we know that

$y=-2x+24$

verify

For $x=0\ days$

$y=-2(0)+24=24\ cookies$ -----> original amount of cookies

For $x=1\ days$

$y=-2(1)+24=22\ cookies$

For $x=12\ days$

$y=-2(12)+24=0\ cookies$
