question

A state imposes a tax on nonresident photographers who operate photographic studios in the state at a rate of 2% of their state-derived income above $12,000. This income tax exempts taxable income earned outside of the state by photographers who live in the state. Moreover, resident-photographers of the state are not taxed on their in-state earned income. A photographer who operates a studio in the state but is a resident of another state, challenges the constitutionality of this tax. Which of the following provisions would furnish the most applicable basis for this constitutional challenge?

choices

  1. The equal protection clause of the Fourteenth Amendment.
  2. The due process clause of the Fourteenth Amendment.
  3. The commerce clause.
  4. The privileges and immunities clause of ArticleIv.
