Answer to Question 1

D

Answer to Question 2

Checks and credit cards are not money because they are not a means of payment. A check is an order to transfer a deposit from one person to another. The deposits are money but the checks are not. A credit card is an ID card that lets a person take out a loan at the instant he or she buys something. The loan still needs to be repaid with money so the credit card is not a means of payment, that is, it is not money.
