Answer:

x+4<12

Explanation:

You did not put the inequalities, but that is how the statement would look like. "And" is a clue that we're adding. So, x + 4 would be the first part, and we know when the open part of this symbol '</>' is pointed at a number then that number is greater than the number before it. So, in this case, you'll want to have that symbol pointed at 12 because x + 4 is less than 12.
