Explanation:

• Proportional tax: A tax where the rate is constant regardless of income. Mr. Brown and Mr. Joseph pay 15% of their income, so this matches proportional tax.
• Regressive tax: A tax that takes a larger percentage of income from low - income earners. Rose (higher income) and Jack (lower income) pay the same $200 sales tax, so the tax as a percentage of income is higher for Jack, matching regressive tax.
• Progressive tax: A tax where the rate increases with income. Mia's tax rate increased with her raise, so this matches progressive tax.

Answer:

proportional tax → Mr. Brown and Mr. Joseph earn different annual incomes. However, they both pay income tax equivalent to 15% of their income.
regressive tax → Rose earns $100,000 a year, and Jack earns $50,000 a year. They each buy the same model of television and pay $200 in sales tax.
progressive tax → Mia's income tax rate increased when she got a promotion and a raise.
