Explanation:

Step1: Identify Filing Status

Assume Harry and Helen are married (since "Harry and Helen" implies a couple). We need to check the "Married filing jointly" column.

Step2: Locate Taxable Income Range

The taxable income is $65,000. Looking at the table, the row for "At least 65,000 But less than" (the first column group) and the "Married filing jointly" column. The value in the "Married filing jointly" column for the row where taxable income is at least 65,000 (first row of the 65,000 group) is 8,951? Wait, no, let's re - examine. Wait, the table has columns: Single, Married filing jointly, Married filing separately, Head of household. For taxable income of $65,000, in the "Married filing jointly" column, the first row (65,000 at least) has the tax value. Wait, looking at the numbers, the "Married filing jointly" column (second column after Single) for the row starting with 65,000 (at least) has the value 8,951? Wait, no, maybe I misread. Wait, the table's first column of numbers (taxable income range) starts with 65,000, 65,050, 65,100, etc. The "Married filing jointly" column (let's index the columns: first column is taxable income range, then Single, then Married filing jointly, then Married filing separately, then Head of household). So for taxable income of $65,000 (the first row of the 65,000 group), the "Married filing jointly" tax is 8,951? Wait, no, maybe the correct way is: when taxable income is $65,000, and filing status is married filing jointly, we look at the row where "At least" is 65,000 and "But less than" is the next amount (65,050). In the "Married filing jointly" column, the value is 8,951? Wait, no, maybe I made a mistake. Wait, let's check the numbers again. The "Married filing jointly" column has values: 8,951 (for 65,000 at least), 8,959 (65,050), 8,969 (65,100), etc. Wait, no, the first number in the "Married filing jointly" column for the 65,000 row is 8,951. But wait, maybe the actual correct value, if we assume the table is a tax table, for married filing jointly, taxable income of $65,000. Wait, maybe I misread the columns. Wait, the "Single" column has 12,600, "Married filing jointly" has 8,951, "Married filing separately" has 12,600, "Head of household" has 11,319. So if they are married filing jointly, the tax is 8,951? Wait, but maybe the question is about what they can expect, so we need to find the tax for married filing jointly with taxable income $65,000.

Answer:

If Harry and Helen are married filing jointly, their tax is 8,951 (assuming the table is a US tax - like table and the filing status is married filing jointly).
