The difference between manually filed return and the electronically filed return is \boxed{538650}. Option (b) is correct.

Further Explanation:

Explanation:

The total tax return is 2.7 million.

The errors on the tax return for electronic filling are 0.05\%.

The errors on the tax return for manual filling are 20\%.

Number of errors in filing tax return manually can be calculated as follows,

\begin{aligned}{\text{Errors in manual filling}} &= 2700000 \times 20\%\\ &= 2700000 \times \frac{{20}}{{100}} \\&= 540000\\\end{alignd}

Number of errors in filing tax return electronically can be calculated as follows,

\begin{aligned}{\text{Errors in electronically filling}} &= 2700000 \times 0.05\% \\&= 2700000 \times \frac{{0.05}}{{100}} \\&= 1350 \\\end{aligned}

The difference in the errors can be calculated as follows,

\begin{aligned}{\text{Difference}} &= 540000 - 1350 \\&= 538650 \\\end{aligned}

The difference between manually filed return and the electronically filed return is \boxed{538650}. Option (b) is correct.

Answer:

B) 538, 650

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Errors on tax returns filed manually  = 20%

Errors on tax returns filed electronically  = 0.05%

Tax return filled in each way = 2.7 million

Manual filing:

2,700,000 x 20% = 2,700,000*0.2 = 540,000

Electronic filing:

2,700,000 x 0.05% = 2, 700,000*0.0005 = 1,350


Error difference = 540,000 - 1,350 = 538,650

There will be 538,650 more erroneous tax returns filed manually than there are filed electronically.

Thank you.

PLEASE help a girl out! :)What is the actual area of the room?
andrey2020 [161]

Answer:

=75ft^{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

Area is found by mulitplying width and height.

A=7.5(5)\\

A=37.5\\in

The ratio is 0.5in : 1ft, so if you multiply that ratio to the answer, you should get the answer in feet.

37.5in x \frac{1ft}{0.5in} =75ft^{2}

Given the function f(x) = -2x2 + 4x - 7, find f(-4).<br> -55<br> -7<br> 25
Neko [114]

Answer:

f(-4)= -55

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to find f(x), or y, when x is equal to -4.

Therefore, we can substitute -4 in for x in the function.

f(x) = -2x^2 + 4x - 7

Substitute -4 in for x

f(-4) = -2(-4^2) + 4(-4) - 7

Evaluate the exponent

f(-4)=-2(16)+4(-4)-7

Multiply -2 and 16

f(-4)= -32+4(-4)-7

Multiply 4 and -4

f(-4)=-32-16-7

Subtract

f(-4)=-55
