The difference between them is 2, so let the unknown numbers be x and (x+2). 

<span>Their sum is 52, so: </span>
<span>52 = x + (x+2) </span>
<span>52 = x + x + 2 </span>
<span>50 = x + x </span>
<span>50 = 2x </span>
<span>25 = x </span>

<span>So your unknown numbers x and (x+2) are 25 and 27.</span>

According to the Internal Revenue Service (IRS), the chances of your tax return being audited are about 6 in 1,000 if your incom
Tamiku [17]

Answer:

The probability that none of these taxpayers will be audited by the IRS is 0.8996 or 89.36%

Step-by-step explanation:

According to given:

Probability of being audited for income less than $50,000 = 6/1000 = 0.006

Therefore,

Probability of not being audited for income less than $50,000 = 1 - 0.006 = 0.994

Similary,

Probability of being audited for income more than $100,000 = 49/1000 = 0.049

Therefore,

Probability of not being audited for income more than $100,000 = 1 - 0.049 = 0.951

Now, for the probability of 2 persons with less $50,000 income and 2 persons with more than $100,000 income, to not being audited, we must multiply the probabilities of not being audited of each of the 4 persons.

Therefore,

Probability that none of them is audited = (0.994)(0.994)(0.951)(0.951)

<u>Probability that none of them is audited = 0.8936 = 89.36%</u>
