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.

What is the value of x?<br><br><br><br> Enter your answer in the box.<br><br> °
Gnom [1K]

Answer:

The answer to your question is:  111°

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of the interior angles of a polygon is (n - 2) 180°

This polygon has 7 sides

Then n = 7

Process

  120 + 158 + 126 + 125 + 121 + 139 + x = (7 - 2)180

  120 + 158 + 126 + 125 + 121 + 139 + x = 5(180)

  789 + x = 900

  x = 900 -789

  x = 111°

Find five rational numbers between 3/7 and 2/3
Softa [21]

Answer:

First, you get both of them with same denominator:

3/7 and 2/3 => 9/21 and 14/21, however, there are only 4 rational numbers between 9/21 and 14/21.

The solution is that you can raise the denominator 2 times:

9/21 and 14/21 => 18/42 and 28/42

Now you can select : 19/42, 20/42, 21/42, 22/42, 23/42. They are a group of  5 rational numbers you are looking for.
