Question

why was the bill of rights created? to promote equality and social justice. to protect individual rights and limit the power of the government. to increase government power and control. to establish a monarchy and aristocracy.

Explanation:

The Bill of Rights (the first 10 amendments to the US Constitution) was created to safeguard individual liberties (like freedom of speech, religion, etc.) and to restrict the federal government's power, ensuring it didn't overstep. The other options are incorrect: promoting equality/social justice isn't its primary focus, increasing government power is opposite to its goal, and the US has no monarchy/aristocracy.

Answer:

B. To protect individual rights and limit the power of the government.
