First Question (The English Bill of Rights guaranteed people: PICK TWO)
The English Bill of Rights (1689) aimed to limit monarchical power. It established a representative government (by limiting the king's power and emphasizing parliamentary authority) and included rights like the right to a fair trial (ensuring due process). "Freedom from Excessive Bail" is more associated with the US Bill of Rights, and "a good King" is not a guaranteed right (it limited the king's power instead). So the two correct options are "Right to a Fair Trial" and "a Representative Government".
The Declaration of Independence's key ideas include that all men are created equal with unalienable rights (life, liberty, pursuit of happiness). It did not claim the US would win the war (that was uncertain), the new Congress's war - declaring power was in the Constitution, and it criticized the British government (so it didn't say it was good and fair).
The Articles of Confederation established a "firm league of friendship" among the states. The Constitution created a stronger federal government, the English Bill of Rights was a British document, and the Magna Carta was also a British legal document.
