The solution of the inequalities is required.
One of the solutions is [tex](5,10)[/tex]
Number of dimes is [tex]x[/tex]
Number of nickels is [tex]y[/tex]
Minimum number of coins is 15.
So, [tex]x+y\geq 15[/tex]
Maximum total value of the coins is $1
So, [tex]0.1x+0.05\leq 1[/tex]
The equations are
[tex]x+y=15[/tex]
[tex]0.1x+0.05y=1[/tex]
Points of the first equation
[tex](0,15)[/tex] and [tex](15,0)[/tex]
Graph the points and draw a line through them.
Points of the second equation
[tex]x=0[/tex]
[tex]y=\dfrac{1}{0.05}=20[/tex]
[tex]y=0[/tex]
[tex]x=\dfrac{1}{0.1}=10[/tex]
[tex](0,20)[/tex] and [tex](10,0)[/tex]
Graph the points and draw a line through them.
The shaded regions can be determined by substituting the point in the equations.
One of the solutions is [tex](5,10)[/tex]
This means there are 5 dimes and 10 nickels.
[tex]5+10=15\geq 15[/tex]
[tex]0.1\times 5+0.05\times 10=1\leq 1[/tex]
Hence, one of the solutions is [tex](5,10)[/tex].
