What was a power given by th articles of confederation a. printing money, b. collecting taxes, controlling the states, d. protecting individual rights

The answer would be option B "Collecting taxes." Articles of Confederation also gave state legislature which allowed states to make their own laws which is why it's not option C. It's not option D because the Bill of Rights is when the government will protecting individual rights. It's also wouldn't be option A printing money because that was the first national banks job.

Hope this helps!
