Blake has xx dimes and yy nickels. He has a minimum of 13 coins worth at most $1 combined. Solve this system of inequalities graphically and determine one possible solution.

Sagot :

Blake has 5 dimes and 10 nickels.

Let x represent the number of dimes and y represent the number of nickels.

Each dime is worth 10 cent ($0.1) and each nickel is worth 5 cents ($0.05).

Since he has a minimum of 13 coins, hence:

x + y ≥ 13     (1)

It is worth at most $1 combined, hence:

0.1x + 0.05y ≤ 1     (2)

From the graph, a possible solution is (5, 10).

Blake has 5 dimes and 10 nickels.
