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.

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.

last option

step-by-step explanation:

given that δdef is right and isoceles,

assuming that side df is the hypotenuse means that de an ef are the other 2 sides that intersect at 90° and are of equal length.

because they are of equal length, we can say that they are congruent

because they intersect at 90°, their slopes must be opposite reciprocals.

only the last option satisfies these conditions.
