The correct answers are B, C, and E.

Raegan Paul · Answer 2

It would be:

Businesses will likely hire more workers - it means that the business due to lower tax rate can expand slowly and add more manpower to its management and company.

Businesses will likely earn more profits - lesser liabilities and expenditures can save more revenue that can add in profits or reinvest to earn more profits.

Businesses will likely invest more in the economy - having lower tax rate attracts businesses to invest in the country's economy thus rejuvenating the economy of the country.
