In what way did the marbury decision enhance checks and balances
jenyasd209 [6]

Answer:

The answer is explained below.

Explanation:

Marbury v. Madison was a supreme court case known for establishing the principle of Judicial review in US. Judicial review means that US courts can strike down statutes, laws and other government actions that violate the US constituion. This case is considered to be the one that laid the foundation of US constitutional law.  The court's opinion was written by Chief Justice John Marshall.  

As per the provision of separation of power the constitution framers wanted the government to have enough powers so that they could run the country but wouldn't be able to abuse it. Thus they developed the provision of separation of power, according to which the power is distributed among the three branches of the the government. So that if one branch of the government tries to abuse their powers others could balance it.

Marbury vs. Madison strengthened this provision as by judicial review the court can control the Congress by declaring laws unconstitutional and illegal.

Why did southern states want slaves to be counted as representation?
Irina-Kira [14]
State Representation is based off the population of the state, since slaves weren't technically citizens, they were not counted in deciding how many representatives a state had. Slaves were a large majority of the population in the south. The south thought they were under represented and wanted slaves to be counted so representation was fair in their eyes.

What is the Latin word for king?
coldgirl [10]
The latin word for king is rex - b.

When you read old texts you can observe that certain people (who were kings) were also given this name which implied they were kings. You could for example find "Oedipus rex" which means Oediupus the king, this is also how we know (a way at least) what this meant.
