Which ones are supposed to be bold?
I dont know my teacher sent this to me
do you have any guesses?
Well I know it isnt C
that's right. there should be another one that you can automatically get rid of since the constitutional convention occurred while the government was still under the articles of confederation.
so....
this was the point of the Constitutional Convention: “Adopt such a government as shall, in the opinion of the representatives of the people, best conduce to the safety and happiness of their constituents in particular and America in general.”
So B.
to amend means to make changes to. you can't make changes to something that has yet to be written :)
true
then d
you can't ratify something that hasn't been written either :) to ratify something means to sign or give formal consent to (a treaty, contract, or agreement), making it officially valid.
Which means it would be A.
yes :)
