Use the points to find the equations of both your lines.
By using the formula for finding slope where: m = (y2-y1) / (x2-x1)
Your first equation is y = -2x+4
Your second equation is y = -2x+7
Normally you want to set these equal to each other and see where they are equal... however, as you can clearly see, these two equations are parallel. Parallel equations don't intersect, which would mean your answer is A, no solutions.

your exact question is kind of difficult to understand, so maybe an example will explain what you're supposed to do? i'll work through the first problem on the worksheet.

suppose you have a tray of 652 brownies, and you have 5 friends that you want to feed without picking favorites. how many brownies can you dole out to each of your friends in equal amounts? how many will be left over for you to eat?

what you're doing here is finding a way to arrange the number 652 as the sum of integer multiple of 5 and some remainder: $652=5q+r$

here $q$ ("q" for quotient) is the number of brownies each of your friends get, and $r$ is the remainder. that's the basic idea behind division.

we break up the number 652 into parts so that the leading digit stands on its own:

652 = 600 + 52

first we check if it's possible to hand out exactly 100 brownies to each friend. with 5 friends, this means we want to know if we can take out 500 brownies from the tray. we can do this 1 time because we have 600 brownies to take from, and when we do that we're left with 100 + 52 brownies to divvy up. so we know that

652 = 1*500 + 152

next we want to know if it's possible to hand out exactly 10 brownies per friend. if we can, we have to remove 50 brownies from the tray each time until we can't. we have 152 brownies left, and we know that 3(50) = 150, so

152 = 3*50 + 2

now we have 2 brownies left in the tray. is it possible to hand 1 out to each of your 5 friends? no, you'd need a minimum of 5 brownies to do that. so the last 2 are yours.

putting everything together, we found that

652 = 1*500 + 3*50 + 2

and we can rearrange this to write

652 = 5*100 + 5*30 + 2

652 = 5(100 + 30) + 2

652 = 5*130 + 2

so $q=130$ and $r=2$ .

you might be more accustomed to the table depicting the algorithm. that's just a compact way of organizing what we've done above. you can consult the image i've attached below.

Which themes are portrayed in this excerpt from leo tolstoy’s the death of ivan ilyich? praskovya fedorovna came of a good family, was not bad looking, and had some little property. ivan ilyich might have aspired to a more brilliant match, but even this was good. he had his salary, and she, he hoped, would have an equal income. she was well connected, and was a sweet, pretty, and thoroughly correct young woman. to say that ivan ilyich married because he fell in love with praskovya fedorovna and found that she sympathized with his views of life would be as incorrect as to say that he married because his social circle approved of the match. he was swayed by both these considerations: the marriage gave him personal satisfaction, and at the same time it was considered the right thing by the most highly placed of his associates. so ivan ilyich got married. conforming to social conventions criticism of a middle class lifestyle the destructive impact of loneliness struggling to face reality the necessity of companionship
