Acircuit overloads at 1800 watts of electricity you plug a microwave oven that uses 1100 watts into the circuit write and solve an inequality that represents how many watts you can add to the circuit without overloading the circuit

Let w be the additional watts you can add on the circuit.

1100 + w < 1800 (write the inequality)
-1100 -1100 ( - 1100 from each side)

w < 700 (simplify)

ANSWER:
You can add up to 700 watts to the circuit, which means that you can also plug in the clock radio and the blender.

LOOK BACK:
You can check that your answer is correct by adding the numbers of watts used by the microwave oven, clock radio and blender.

1100 + 50 + 300 = 1450

The circuit will not overload because the total wattage is less than 1800 watts.
