Answer 1

t < 17

Explanation:

If Kira has already run 12 miles and she will run less than 29 miles this week, then the total number of additional miles she will run is less than 29 - 12 = 17 miles. So, the inequality that represents the possible number of additional miles Kira will run is t < 17.
