Which of the following is an example of a delegated power of the federal government in the United States?

Regulating education.
Establishing local governments.
Printing money.
Conducting elections.

The correct answer is: Printing money.

One example of a delegated power of the federal government in the United States is printing money. This responsibility is granted to the federal government by the Constitution and is not shared with state governments. Option A, regulating education, is mostly the responsibility of state and local governments. Option B, establishing local governments, is also mostly delegated to state governments. Option D, conducting elections, is shared between the federal and state governments, as both have specific responsibilities in the election process. Therefore, C is the correct answer as it is the only option that is a solely delegated power of the federal government.
