Called together to revise the Articles of Confederation the delegates decided that a new and stronger Constitution was needed. The federal government now had the power to tax, and its provisions were to be the supreme law of the land. ...

Each branch had checks and balances on the powers of the other two.

Answer:

No

Step-by-step explanation:

The Articles of Confederation didn't even have three branches of government. Instead, there was just one weak central power: Congress.
