Answer:

The answer you are wanting is E "authorized Congress to implement a graduated income tax."

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there! Basically, the16th ammendment allowed the Congress to impose an income tax that didn't have to be divded among states due to population. In short, the government can collect income tax from all Americans. It gave Congress the right to impose a Federal income tax.

Hope this helps! :)
