Trisha has already eaten y of the 12 containers of yogurt she bought at the store. Write an expression that shows how many containers of yogurt Trisha has left.

Answer 1

To find out how many containers of yogurt Trisha has left after eating \( y \) of the 12 containers, you can subtract the number of containers she has eaten from the total number of containers.

The expression would be:

\[ 12 - y \]

This expression represents the number of yogurt containers Trisha has left.
