Final answer:

The 105th day of 2013 corresponds to April 15th, which is also the typical deadline for filing tax returns in the United States, such as the 1040EZ form. If the amount withheld from a taxpayer's paycheck exceeds what is owed, they can receive a tax refund.

Step-by-step explanation:

The student's question asks to determine which date corresponds to the 105th day of the year 2013. To find the correct answer, we consider that each month has a specific number of days. Starting from January 1st, which is the first day of the year, we add up the days of each month until we reach the 105th day.

The first three months are January with 31 days, February with 28 days (since 2013 is not a leap year), and March with 31 days. Summing these days we get 31 (January) + 28 (February) + 31 (March) which equals 90 days. Therefore, to reach the 105th day, we need to count an additional 15 days into April.

The 15th day of April is the 105th day of 2013. The correct answer to the question is April 15th. In the United States, April 15th is also typically recognized as the deadline to file income tax forms, such as the 1040EZ, and to follow through with your financial responsibility concerning taxes owed from the previous year. If taxpayers have had more taxes taken out of their paychecks than what they owe, they may receive a tax refund.
