Question

A circuit overloads at 1800 watts of electricity you plug in a toaster that uses 800 watts of electricity write and solve an inequality that represents how many watts you can add to the circuit without overloading it.

Answer 1

Answer:

x ≤ 1000 W

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the circuit becomes overloaded when the load exceeds 1800W and the toaster uses 800 W.

Let the additional watts be x

Therefore;

800 + x ≤ 1800

x ≤ 1800 -800

x ≤ 1000 W
