Answer:
x=7/3
Step-by-step explanation:
8 ^ (x - 1 ) = 16
We need to rewrite 8 as 2^3 and 16 as 2^4
2^3 ^ (x - 1 ) = 2^4
We know that a^b^c = a^(b*c)
2^(3(x-1)) = 2^4
The bases are the same so the exponents are the same
3(x-1) = 4
Distribute
3x-3 = 4
Add 3 to each side
3x-3+3 = 4+3
3x = 7
Divide by 3
3x/3 = 7/3
x=7/3

To begin with, you need to find the total number of pencils, which is 21.
Then you subtract 21 from 6 (red pencils) to find how many are not red.
The answer is B. 15 pencils are not red.
