Hi, can someone help me with a check this is from Social Studies/History (Ikr? Yea, shocker) But I would really appreciate it if
steposvetlana [31]

Answer: Well it's a little hard to explain so I hope this helps

Explanation: Step 1: Date the check

Write the date on the line at the top right-hand corner. This step is important so the bank and/or person you are giving the check to knows when you wrote it.

Step 2: Who is this check for?

The next line on the check, “Pay to the order of,” is where you write the name of the person or company you want to pay. You can also just write the word “cash” if you don’t know the person or organization’s exact name. Be aware, though, that this can be risky if the check ever gets lost or stolen. Anybody can cash or deposit a check made out to “cash."

Step 3: Write the payment amount in numbers

There are two spots on a check where you write the amount you are paying. First, you’ll need to write the dollar amount numerically (for example $130.45) in the small box on the right. Be sure to write this clearly so the ATM and/or bank can accurately subtract this amount from your account.  

Step 4: Write the payment amount in words

On the line below “Pay to the order of,” write out the dollar amount in words to match the numerical dollar amount you wrote in the box. For example, if you are paying $130.45, you will write “one hundred thirty and 45/100.” To write a check with cents, be sure to put the cents amount over 100. If the dollar amount is a round number, still include “and 00/100” for additional clarity. Writing the dollar amount in words is important for a bank to process a check as it confirms the correct payment total.

Step 5: Write a memo

Filling out the line that says “Memo” is optional, but helpful for knowing why you wrote the check. If you are paying a check for a monthly electric bill or rent, you can write “Electric Bill” or “Monthly Rent” in the memo area. Often when you are paying a bill, the company will ask you to write your account number on the check in the memo area.

Step 6: Sign the check

Sign your name on the line at the bottom right-hand corner using the signature you used when you opened the checking account. This shows the bank that you agree that you are paying the stated amount and to the correct payee. (This is so long sorry)

Snowcat [4.5K]

Answer:

Support European colonies.

Explanation:

As the US became developed the country abandoned the isolationist policy and started to get involved in a series of international issues. Quickly the American government realized that if the US started to support the European Colonies, especially those in Latin America, and helped them to gain independence from Europe, there would be a big sphere of influence on the American continent. This is called the big stick diplomacy first developed by Theodore Roosevelt. With that the US became more and more relevant internationally.

What are the advantages of having a representative body such as Congress made up of seasoned and experienced lawmakers? What are
Dima020 [189]
Having members of Congress that are experienced lawyers helps because these individuals have experience with interpreting laws and studying their effects. Lawyers have a wealth of knowledge about how laws work and how they can impact different groups of American societies. This allows them to consider several different factors before passing legislation.

One of the disadvantages of allowing Congressmen and Congress women to serve as long as they want limits new ideas/viewpoints from being shared in the legislative branch.
