Explanation:
I already answered your question at 4.23 in Dbox so why keep asking the same thing?

IN ENGLISH it's

This type of businessmAn

OR

These typeS of businessmEn

You can't mix singular and plural like that in English


And BTW we don't like gender specific nouns in English. We'd more likely say "business person" these days to be more inclusive unless they are all male

disagree  Yvonne Gallagher: not the question asked//entrepreneur is NOT a synonym of businessman/person
5 hrs
  -> But perhaps it helps. In English one wouldn't mix singular and plural like the Spanish here

agree  neilmac: entrepreneur: a person who sets up a business or businesses. Seems pretty synonymous to me.
