Let x represent the number of nickels in the box and y represent the number of dimes in the box. Which of the following statements best describes the steps to graph the solution to the inequality in x and y?
 Draw a dashed line to represent the graph of 5x + 10y = 1000, and shade the portion below the line for positive values of x and y.
 Draw a dashed line to represent the graph of 5x + 10y = 1000, and shade the portion above the line for positive values of x and y.
 Draw a dashed line to represent the graph of 10x + 5y = 1000, and shade the portion above the line for positive values of x and y.
 Draw a dashed line to represent the graph of 10x + 5y = 1000, and shade the portion below the line for positive values of x and y.

 Comment:: Since you want the value to MORE THAN, you need the area ABOVE
 the line.
 Answer::
 Draw a dashed line to represent the graph of 5x + 10y = 1000, and shade the portion ABOVE line for positive values of x and y.
