The correct answer is:

the Land Ordinance of 1785 and the Northwest Ordinance

These ordinances are considered significant achievements of the government under the Articles of Confederation, as they provided a structured process for surveying, selling, and settling western lands and established a method for admitting new states into the Union. The other options do not accurately reflect strengths of the Articles of Confederation.
