the answer is propotional because they BOTH pay 10% of their incomes. you dont have enough evidence in the question to prove its progressive. progressive tax—A tax that takes a larger percentage of income from high-income groups than from low-income groups. proportional tax—A tax that takes the same percentage of income from all income groups.
