For this answer, you multiply the weight of each penny nail by x and the weight of each wood nail by y.  If the bag holds one pound of nails, you would use the inequality ≤.

.05x + 0.1y ≤ 1

Answer:

0.05x+0.10y \leq 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the penny nails be represented by x

Let the wood nails be represented by = y

Each penny nails weigh = 0.05 pounds

Each wood nail weigh = 0.10 pounds

Now we have been asked about the inequality which shows the solution for all combinations of the two kinds of nails that will fit in the 1-pound bag.

So, the inequality becomes:

0.05x+0.10y \leq 1
