nearest dollar?

A. $10,470
B. 10,590
C. 11,150
D. 11,320

Answer 1

Using the function specified in the table, it is found that their taxes will be given by:

A. $10,470

How are their taxes determined?

For a coupe filling jointly, with earnings E between $56,800 and $114,649.99, their taxes are modeled according to the following function:

$T(E) = 0.25E - 6380$

In this problem, the couple filing jointly earns $67,400, hence $E = 67400$, and:

$T(67400) = 0.25(67400) - 6380 = 10470$

Hence option A is correct.
