Answer:

89 employees

Step-by-step explanation:

Uniforms come in packs of 8, and the store plans to purchase 56 packs of uniforms.

This means

1 pack = 8 uniforms

56 packs = x uniforms

Cross Multiply

x = 56 × 8 uniforms

x = 448 uniforms

The plan is to hand out 5 uniforms to every employee one for each day or the week.

Hence, the number of employees that the store can give can uniforms to is calculated as:

5 uniforms = 1 employee

448 uniforms = x employees

Cross Multiply

5x = 448 × 1 employee

x = 448/5

x = 89.6 employees.

Since a person cannot be represented by decimal, the store can give uniforms to 89 employees

Write an equation that represents the situation
Nadya [2.5K]

Answer:

y = x - 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given line passes through the points (3,\:0)=(x_1,\:y_1) \:\&\:(6,\:3)=(x_2,\:y_2)

Equation of line in two point form is given as:

\frac{y - y_1}{y_1 - y_2}  =  \frac{x - x_1}{x_1 - x_2}  \\  \\  \therefore \: \frac{y - 0}{0 - 3}  =  \frac{x - 3}{3 - 6}   \\  \\ \therefore \: \frac{y }{- 3}  =  \frac{x - 3}{ - 3}   \\  \huge \red{ \boxed{\therefore \:  y = x - 3}} \\  \implies \: y = mx + b
