Answer 2

I'm not sure that a clear distinction is universally recognized, although you could certainly try to draw one. Both implied and inherent powers are as opposed to explicit powers. An explicit power is one that is enumerated in the Constitution or an Act of Congress. If you wanted to distinguish implied and inherent power, implied powers would be ones that are not enumerated, but follow logically from ones that are enumerated. Inherent powers would then be those that are said to derive from the nature of a position. The idea of inherent powers is controversial in regards to the federal government.
