Answer:

B. The company hires 10 employees every year.

Step-by-step explanation:

One way to look at this is to look at the units on the number 10. Working strictly with units, we get ...

f(x) = 10x . . . . . . f(x) is employees, x is years

employees = 10·years

Dividing by years, we find the meaning of "10":

employees/year = 10

The division symbol (/) is read as "per", so this means the number 10 in the equation is the number of employees per year that are hired.

10 employees are hired every year.
