Answer:

It is not possible to determine if the site is trustworthy, because no link is provided. However, here are some basic guidelines for you to do it on your own with this and any other website.

Explanation:

Whenever we conduct internet research, there are some basic aspects that must be considered to determine the source's trustworthiness:

Autorship - The author of the text must be clearly mentioned and be someone qualified to discuss the subject, such as a scholar or an experienced person in the field. Most of the times, contact information is provided.

Domain - The kind of domain for the website can also determine reliability. .edu, .gov, and .org are used for educational, government, and non-profit organizations, respectively. Suchs domains will contain more reliable information than a .com or .co site, which are for commercial use.

Purpose and audience - A trustworthy source of information clearly states who is their target audience and what is the purpose for addressing certain topics. This might be determined by the language used and the content itself.

If there is sponsorship or clear intention of selling a product, the author may be biased. The same can be said if there are pop-up windows that direct to a commercial external website or in-page advertisement.

Objectivity - Reliable information has to be presented in an objective and unbiased manner, refering to facts and evidence, and presenting all sides of the matter without pushing for a forced conclusion on the reader's side.}

If there are any personal opinions presented, they must be clearly stated as that, without mixing them with the main body of the text.

Accuracy - The information must be properly written, using correct grammar, punctuation, and spelling, and using an appropriate vocabulary to the intended audience.

The information must be clearly sourced and be easily corroborated.

Updated (and dated) - Trustworthy information relies on constant updates from the authors, based on the latest research or debate on the topic in hand. All pieces of writing have to be clearly dated, so the information can be verified and crossexamined with other sources.

What does burr learn during the room where it happens
Elza [17]

Answer:

Aaron Burr and Secretary of the Treasury Alexander Hamilton discuss the legacy of the deceased General Mercer, pondering what their own legacies will be, and Hamilton's attempt to gain approval from Congress for his proposed financial system. Their discussion is interrupted as Hamilton is ushered to a secret dinner table meeting, at which he, Thomas Jefferson, and James Madison agree upon an unprecedented political compromise. The capital city of their new nation will be situated on the Potomac River, politically and geographically placing it in the South, Jefferson and Madison's home region; in exchange for the Democratic-Republican Party's support of Hamilton's financial plan. Burr ponders Jefferson's reports on the meeting, and enviously comments on how the American people, and more specifically himself, had no agency in this decision. He decides to rectify this by running for political office in an effort to be in the metaphorical "room where it happens"—i.e., to be a party to important decisions.

Claire Lampen of Yahoo News explained "History has drawn much of its information on the compromise from Thomas Jefferson's account of the evening, according to PBS; neither Miranda nor anyone else can be entirely certain what happened behind those closed doors".[4] This grants Miranda artistic liberty and freedom in retelling the story of the compromise.
