The chart shows how two people with different incomes are taxed.

\begin{tabular}{|l|l|l|l|}
\hline
& \multicolumn{1}{|c|}{Income} & \multicolumn{1}{|c|}{Tax rate} & Taxes paid \\
\hline
Citizen A & [tex]$\$[/tex] 35,000[tex]$ & $[/tex]11 \%[tex]$ & $[/tex]\[tex]$ 3,850$[/tex] \\
\hline
Citizen B & [tex]$\$[/tex] 72,000[tex]$ & $[/tex]11 \%[tex]$ & $[/tex]\[tex]$ 7,920$[/tex] \\
\hline
\end{tabular}

According to the chart, the citizens are being taxed at a flat rate.



Answer :

Let's analyze the given data in the chart to determine the tax rate at which the citizens are being taxed:

1. Citizen A:
- Income: \[tex]$35,000 - Tax Rate: 11% - Taxes Paid: \$[/tex]3,850

2. Citizen B:
- Income: \[tex]$72,000 - Tax Rate: 11% - Taxes Paid: \$[/tex]7,920

From the chart, we can observe that Citizen A and Citizen B are both taxed at a flat rate of 11%.
This is confirmed because both individuals, despite their different incomes, are taxed at the same rate (11%) and their taxes paid match the respective income percentage accurately.

Therefore, according to the chart, the citizens are being taxed at a flat rate of 11%.
