4(x-2)-3=9

Reorder the terms:
4(-2 + x) + -3 = 9
(-2 * 4 + x * 4) + -3 = 9
(-8 + 4x) + -3 = 9
Reorder the terms:
-8 + -3 + 4x = 9
Combine like terms:
-8 + -3 = -11
-11 + 4x = 9 Solving:
-11 + 4x = 9
Add '11' to each side of the equation.
-11 + 11 + 4x = 9 + 11
Combine like terms: -11 + 11 = 0
0 + 4x = 9 + 11
4x = 9 + 11
Combine like terms:
9 + 11 = 20
4x = 20
Divide each side by 4.

x = 5

Answer:

You have to take 15 pens to get at least one red pencil.

Step-by-step explanation:

If there were one red and 6 green pens, there would be more red than green pens.

If there were 3 or more blue and thus 18 or more green pens, the number of pens would be over 20.

So there must be 2 blue, 12 green and thus 6 red pencils. So you have to take at least 15 pens to be sure that you got a red one.
