How do i do this trying my best but i can’t t_t

Use algebra.

Let the number of stickers each had in the beginning = x stickers.

Ray lost 10 we represent this by

x - 10 ( = no. stickers he has now)

Tom bought 200 so the number of stickers he now has

= x + 200

Rays has 1/4 as much as Tom so we can now create the equation

1/4(x + 200) = x - 10

Soling for x:-

1/4 x + 50 = x - 10

60 = 3/4 x

x = 60 * 4/3 = 80

Answer they had 80 stickers at first.

step-by-step explanation:

the answer is:

the correct option:

b.

to solve the problem, we need to remember how to operate to simplify exponential expressions using the logarithms.

we are given the equation:

then, using placing logarith with base 7 on both sides of the equation, we have:

so, rounding the obtained result to two decimal places (nearest hundreth), we have:

hence, we have that the correct option:

b.

have a nice day!
