Answer:

16

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of attires Clara has initially = x

lends half her collection of formal attires to her sister

Attires remaining after lending = Number of attires Clara has initially - attires she lent her sister

= x - 1/2x

= 1/2x

Clara then buys four more attires

= 1/2x + 4

If she has 12 attires now

12 = 1/2x + 4

12 - 4 = 1/2x

8 = 1/2x

x = 8 ÷ 1/2

= 8 × 2/1

= 16

x = 16

Number of attires Clara has initially = x = 16

The center of mass is defined as a point on the straight line between two objects with masses m1 and m2 such that . What are the
STatiana [176]
Let the point be P, and the masses be located at P1 and P2.

The centre of mass is such that the moments of masses m1 and m2 exert an equal moment at the point P,
and the distance P1P2=d
namely,

m1(mPP1)=m2(mPP2)
The distance of the centre of mass from m1 is therefore
d1=d*m2/(m1+m2)
Similarly, the distance of the centre of mass from m2 is
d2=d*m1/(m1+m2)
