Answer:

It cannot be concluded that ABCD is square.

Step-by-step explanation:

parallelogram is a quadrilateral whose opposite side are parallel

it may or may not have angles right angled.

For a quadrilateral to be square following condition should be satisfied

1: opposite side parallel

2: all side congruent

3: All angles right angle.

____________________________________________

coming back  to question

given

Marcus shows that opposite sides are congruent and opposite sides are parallel.

He says that opposite sides are congruent but no information is given about adjacent side. Adjacent side should also be congruent

Also , criteria of right angle is not also mentioned which is mandatory to prove shape of square.

Based on above information,

ABCD can also be

Rectangle and Rhombus, as both also  have  opposite sides  congruent and opposite sides  parallel.

Hence, it cannot be concluded that ABCD is square.

Emily gives her bird 1/8 cup of bird seeds along with 1/3 cup of grains each day. How much food is given each day to the bird
ANEK [815]

Answer:

11/24 cup

Step-by-step explanation:

What you would do is add 1/8 plus 1/3. To add two fractions, each much have the same denominator. In this case, you would need to multiply 1/8 into 3/24 by multiplying 1/8 by 3 on the denominator and numerator. For 1/3, multiply each the numerator and denominator by 8 getting the fraction 8/24. Now you can line up each fraction and add the numerators, keeping the denominator at 24. That answer would be 11/24. This cannot be simplified, so the answer is 11/24 cup of food.

Whenever you are confused with assignments, it is best to tell your parent to help you or teacher the next day. Hope this helps though!

Find the value of x from the equation
Jobisdone [24]

\dfrac{8^{3x}}{2^{10}}=\dfrac{4^{2x}}{16} \\\dfrac{2^{3(3x)}}{2^{10}}=\dfrac{4^{2x}}{4^2} \\2^{9x-10}=4^{2x-2} \\2^{9x-10}=2^{2(2x-2)} \\2^{9x-10}=2^{4x-4} \\9x-10=4x-4 \\5x-6=0 \\5x=6 \\\boxed{x=\dfrac{6}{5}}

Hope this helps.
