Answer:
Draw a dashed line to represent the graph of [tex]5x+10y= 1,000[/tex], and shade the portion above the line for positive values of x and y
Step-by-step explanation:
Let
x------> the number of nickels in the box
y------->the number of dimes in the box
we know that
[tex]1\ nickel=\$0.05[/tex]
[tex]1\ dime=\$0.10[/tex]
so
[tex]0.05x+0.10y > 10[/tex]
Multiply by [tex]100[/tex] both sides
[tex]5x+10y > 1,000[/tex] -----> inequality that represent the situation
The solution of the inequality is the shaded area above the dashed line for positive values of x and y
The equation of the dashed line is [tex]5x+10y= 1,000[/tex]
therefore
the answer is
Draw a dashed line to represent the graph of [tex]5x+10y= 1,000[/tex], and shade the portion above the line for positive values of x and y
