Answer:

The answers are:

  • C) property
  • A) direct tax

Step-by-step explanation:

Property taxes are usually levied by local governments and are paid by the owner of the real estate which is being taxed. Many local governments use property taxes to fund local school programs, road maintenance, local police, libraries, etc.

Property taxes are direct taxes since they are paid directly by the taxpayer (owner of the real estate).
