Answer:The compromise solution was to count three out of every five slaves as people ( for representation and tax purposes) for this purpose. Its effect was to give the Southern states a third more seats in Congress and a third more electoral votes than if slaves had been ignored, but fewer than if slaves and free people had been counted equally.

A contentious issue at the 1787 Constitutional Convention was whether slaves would be counted as part of the population which they were deciding if they be under the representation of the states in the Congress or would instead be considered property and, as such, not be considered for purposes of representation.

kobusy [5.1K]

Answer:

D.  It provided for a system of checks and balances.

Explanation:

After the signing of the Articles of Confederation, thirteen colonies, which became now states, adopted their own constitutions. Their main goal was to ensure those “inalienable rights,” the violation of which prompted the colonies to sever relations with Great Britain. Each constitution proclaimed certain general principles that the state government was going to follow. The constitutions of all states provided for the separation of powers into the executive, legislative, and judicial branches, the introduction of a system of checks and balances, in which each branch of government was limited and balanced by the others.
