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.
According to the Pythagorean theorem, the square of the hypotenuse (the longest side) of a right-angled triangle equals to the sum of the squares of the other two sides. In this case, the ladder is the hypotenuse, which equals to the distance between the bottom of the ladder and the tree + the distance we want to find (x):
5² + x² = 13²
25 + x² = 169
x² = 144
x = √144 = 12.
The distance between the ground and the top of the ladder is 12 ft.
The answer would be 98
7+7=14
14•7=98
