You’re cool in my opinion
X is equal to 2. put 2 in for X and try to solve it
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.
