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.
Answer:
In step 5, andrew made a mistake by subtracting 9.8 instead of adding 9.8. Andrew should've have obtained the answer -2, but because of his mistake the answer is incorrect.
Answer:
The number of fiction books is <u>500</u> and non fiction books is <u>1500</u>.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Total book library contains = 2000.
There are 3 times as many non fiction books as fiction books.
Now, to determine the number of non fiction books and fiction books.
Let the fiction books be 
And the non fiction books be 
Total books = 2000.
Now, to get the number of non fiction books and fiction books we put an equation:


Dividing both sides by 4 we get:

Fiction books = 500.
Non fiction books = 
Therefore, the number of fiction books is 500 and non fiction books is 1500.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
If we choose chairs having odd number in the row
no of chairs from which selection is made = 10
no of chairs to be selected = 5
no of ways = 10C₅
similarly if we choose hairs having even numbers only ,
similar to above , no of ways
= 10C₅
Total no of ways
= 2 x 10C₅
= 2 x 10 x 9 x 8 x 7 x 6 / 5 x 4x3 x 2 x 1
= 504 .
Answer: y ≤ -x + 2
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
There are an infinite number of possible solutions.
Plot the two points, draw any line between them such that the two points are NOT connected, then choose the inequality symbol that shades (-1, 3).
Here is one solution that satisfies the requirements. y ≤ -x + 2
Here is another: y < -x + 3
And another: y > x + 3
And one more: y ≥ x + 4
