Answer: See explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question, we are informed that Scott has already collected 3 cans but wants to collect at least 12 cans in all.

The inequality to show the number of cans that Scott needs to collect to reach his goal will be:

x + 3 ≥ 12

x ≥ 12 - 3

x ≥ 9

To each his goal, he has to collect at least 9 more cans.
