Answer 1

Levi Strauss was the businessman who made heavy-duty work pants for gold rush miners.

Step-by-step explanation:

The businessman who famously made heavy-duty work pants for gold rush miners using tent canvas and then denim was Levi Strauss. Levi's blue jeans became the most recognizable American fashion.
