Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

If taxes have been underpaid, it won’t matter to the IRS who is responsible. If the return was filed jointly, the government can go after both even if one didn’t personally earn one penny of the reported income.

Hence in the given case,

For the unpaid amount of $38,200 IRS can assess either Mr.peterson or Mrs.Peterson for the entire deficiency as both are jointly and severally liable for the tax paid before they got divorced.

A printer prints 28 photos in 8 minutes. how many photos does it take to print 35 more photos
svetlana [45]
First, we see how many photos can be printed in a minute. We do know that it can print 28 photos in 8 minutes.

To find how many photos it can print in 1 minute, we divide 28 by 8.

28÷8=3.5 

The printer can print 3.5 photos per minute. 

To see how many minutes it will take to print 35 photos, we divide 35 by 3.5.

35÷3.5=10.

It will take 10 minutes to print 35 photos.

Have a nice day! :)

A sweater is on sale for 20% off. A jacket is on sale for 15% off. The sale price for each item is $34.00. Which item cost more
SashulF [63]

The sweater cost more originally. It costs $2.50 more from jacket.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Discount rate of sweater = 20%

Sale price of sweater = (100-20)% = 80%

Discount rate of jacket = 15%

Sale price of jacket = (100-15)% = 85%

Sale price of each item = $34.00

Let,

x be the original price of sweater.

y be the original price of jacket.

80% of x = 34

\frac{80}{100}x=34\\0.80x=34

Dividing both sides by 0.80

\frac{0.80x}{0.80}=\frac{34}{0.80}\\x=42.50

The original price of sweater is $42.50

85% of y = 34

\frac{85}{100}y=34\\0.85y=34

Dividing both sides by 0.85

\frac{0.85y}{0.85}=\frac{34}{0.85}\\y=40

The original cost of jacket is $40

Difference = 42.50 - 40 = $2.50

The sweater cost more originally. It costs $2.50 more from jacket.
