Question

question: which of the following is an example of a power shared by both the states and the federal government (concurrent power)? taxing, borrowing money, and enforcing laws creating local governments and holding elections declaring war and making treaties

Explanation:

To determine the shared (concurrent) power, we analyze each option:

• "Taxing, borrowing money, and enforcing laws": Taxing and borrowing money are concurrent powers (both federal and state can do these, and enforcing laws is also shared in some contexts like law enforcement).
• "Creating local governments and holding elections": These are typically state or local powers, not shared with federal.
• "Declaring war and making treaties": These are exclusive federal powers (only federal government can declare war or make treaties).

So the first option lists concurrent powers.

Answer:

Taxing, borrowing money, and enforcing laws
