Explanation:

• For "It set a precedent for the creation of cabinet departments under the Constitution": The Confederation government had departments that later influenced cabinet departments under the Constitution, so this applies.
• For "It signed a peace treaty with Britain, recognizing American independence": The Treaty of Paris (1783) was signed under the Confederation, recognizing U.S. independence, so this applies.
• For "It established a fair and consistent policy for settling and developing lands west of the Appalachian Mountains": The Land Ordinance of 1785 and Northwest Ordinance (1787) under the Confederation established such policies, so this applies.
• For "It created the Supreme Court": The Supreme Court was created by the Constitution, not the Confederation, so this is incorrect.
• For "It drafted the Constitution of the United States": The Constitution was drafted to replace the Articles of Confederation, and the Confederation did not draft it, so this is incorrect.
• For "It established the Office of the President of the United States": The office of the President was established by the Constitution, not the Confederation, so this is incorrect.
