Translate the sentence into an equality:

Four subtracted from y is greater than - 28

Four subtracted from y is greater than - 28

y - 4 > - 28

Answer:Y-4>-28

Step-by-step explanation:

1) It says four is subtracted from Y. This means you are taking four away from Y (Y-4). If it said Y is subtracted from four, it would translate to 4-Y.

2) Next, it says Y-4 is greater than - 28. When a value is greater than another value, you would use the sign (>) with the "mouth" opening up to the greater value. Think about when you are hungry. You want to eat the plate with the larger amount, so you're mouth opens up for the larger amount. Y-4>-28
