Answer:

<h3>y = 56x</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the amount to keep one adult in a day to be x

Since 7 days = 1 week

Amount it will take to keep one adult for a week will be 7x

one adult = 7x pounds

To get the expression that show how much it costs per week to keep the 8 adults, we will say;

8 adults = y pounds

where y is the required amount

Solving both expressions

one adult = 7x pounds

8 adults = y pounds

Cross multiply

1 * y = 7x * 8

y = 56x

Hence the required expression is y = 56x
