Ivy corporation gave 79 people a bonus. If Ivy had given 5 more people bonuses, Ivy would have rewarded 3/5 of the workforce. How large is Ivy's workforce. HELP.

140 people in Ivy's workforce

Step-by-step explanation:

First, add together the 79 workers and the 5 extra people.

79 + 5 = 84

Now take 84 divided by 3/5 to find the number of people who are in the workforce.

84/ 3/5 = 140 people in Ivy's workforce

x=-2

infinite number of lines, so there is an infinite number of equations.

step-by-step explanation:

there are an infinite number of line that passes through the point (-2,5)

x=-2   is one line that passes through the point

y = 5 is another line that passes through the point

(these two lines are perpendicular to each other).

since the number of   numbers are infinite and the slope is the ratio of two numbers,(change in y over change in x) we can have an infinite number of slopes.     our only condition is that it passes through the point (-2,5)

the simplified form is

step-by-step explanation:

we want to simplify the expression,

let us change the middle bar to a normal division sign to obtain,

we multiply the first fraction by the reciprocal of the second fraction to obtain,

we factor to obtain,

we cancel the common factors to get,

we simplify to get,

the correct answer is b
