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.
Answer:
It seems like this question is not clear enough but it probably is like the one in the pictures. :)

Look at the pictures.
Answer:
b = √(c^2 - a²)
Step-by-step explanation:
Start with the given c = √a^2 + b^2. Squaring both sides, we get:
c² = a² + b².
We want to iosolate b² and then b.
So: subtract a² from both sides, resulting in:
c² - a² = b²
Taking the square root of both sides, we get:
√b² = √(c² - a²)
and so:
b = √(c^2 - a²)
