Clara lends half of her collection of formal attires to her sister, susan. clara then buys four more attires. if she has 12 attires now, how many attires did clara had initially? pls this is hard for me. i’m not good with these kinds of problems. i will mark brainlist whoever answers first. i just need lots of pls

Clara had 16 attires initially and then lend half to her sisters.

Equation is an expression used to show the relationship between two or more numbers and variables.

Let x represent the number of attires Clara has initially.

From the question we get the equation:

x - (1/2)x + 4 = 12

(1/2)x + 4 = 12

(1/2)x = 8

x = 16

Clara had 16 attires initially and then lend half to her sisters.

u = -(6/7)w

step-by-step explanation:

place all values with 'u' on one side of the equation.

4u + 8w = - 3u + 2w

4u + 3u = 2w - 8w

further simplify the equation by solving the addition and subtraction.

7u = - 6w

make 'u' the independent variable by placing its co-efficient on the right-hand side.

u = - (6/7)w

the answer is d

for problems like this theres an app, its photomath that explains the problem and gives the answer hope i
