Final answer:

The coach would use the inequalities 10x + 5y ≥ 5000, x ≥ 0, and y ≥ 0 to create the graph.

Step-by-step explanation:

The coach would use the following inequalities to create the graph:

10x + 5y ≥ 5000

where x represents the number of premium seats sold and y represents the number of regular seats sold. This inequality ensures that the total revenue from premium and regular seats combined is at least $5000.

x ≥ 0

This inequality represents the constraint that the number of premium seats sold cannot be negative.

y ≥ 0

This inequality represents the constraint that the number of regular seats sold cannot be negative.
