Translate the sentence into an inequality.
The sum of 3 and c is less than -29.

Answer 1

3 + c < -29 from "The sum of 3 and c is less than -29."

3 + c < -29 from "The sum of 3 and c is less than -29."

Answer 2

3+c < -29 or c+3 < -29 because of communitive property

Explanation:

First, the sum means addition, you could write 3+c or c+3 because addition is communitive property.

Then the sum is less than -29 so we need to use the less than symbol which is this symbol: <

Now write the inequality! 3+c < -29
