Answer

No. The inequality $1000+w\lt1800$ will not be satisfied as $w=800$.

Work Step by Step

No. The inequality in the given problem is: $1000+w\lt1800$ where $w$ is the additional watts that we can add to the circuit. $w=800$ for toaster. $\implies 1000+w=1800$ is not less than $1800$. So, the inequality is not satisfied.
