Answer

By controlling trade routes and taxing merchants

Explanation

Sargon of Akkad was the first ruler of the Semitic-speaking Akkadian Empire, known for his conquests of the Sumerian city-states. Sargon  is credited with creating the world's first known empire. The Akkadians expanded their territory into locales along the Euphrates River and northern parts of the Middle East, including Syria and Turkey. In order to raise money to pay his army and also buy the loyalty of his supporters, Sargon controlled trade routes and taxed the Merchants.

the correct answer is alternative c) "determine which debts to pay off."

credit report is a record of a person's credit history, from several sources such as banks, credit card companies, government, etc.

looking through your credit report you'll know exactly how much and to whom you owe money.

looking at your credit score you'll show you if your credit is improving.

only by paying off your debt or renegotiating it can you reduce the amount of money owed.

credit reports are not an instrument of negotiating interest. they only show your track record when it comes to borrowing money.
