The answer is letter C.

The power to sign treaties is not a shared power by the federal and state governments. It is mostly the responsibility of the legislative and executive departments of the US government. Treaties are conditions that have been voted upon the majority of the legislative department that still needs to approved by the executive part of government.

Other decisions like levying taxes, borrowing money, and maintaining a court systems are powers both shared by the federal and state governments.
