The answer is letter C, No Yes.

Explanation:

When it comes to paying the tax, a "Standard Tax Deduction" is very common. This refers to the amount of money in your income that is not taxable or subject to tax. The standard deduction of a person depends on his age, filing status and whether he is blind or not.

When it comes to the "Additional Standard Deduction," this condition is only applicable to people who meet a certain criteria. Those who are 65 years old and older and who are legally blind qualifies for an additional standard deduction.

In the situation above, the first statement is "No." The person is not required to support a dependent child or aged parent. These are not stated as requirements for additional standard deduction. The second statement is "Yes" because this statement clearly satisfies the two conditions, "must be age 65 or older or blind."
