A quadrilateral is shown. One pair of opposite sides have lengths of 10 inches and (x + 2) inches. The other pair of opposite sides have lengths (x + 5) inches and (2 x minus 3) inches.
Based on the measures shown, could the figure be a parallelogram?

Yes, one pair of opposite sides could measure
10 in., and the other pair could measure 13 in.
Yes, one pair of opposite sides could measure
10 in., and the other pair could measure 8 in.
No, there are three different values for x when each expression is set equal to 10.
No, the value of x that makes one pair of sides congruent does not make the other pair of sides congruent.

Yes, one pair of opposite sides could measure  10 in., and the other pair could measure 13 in.

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

A parallelogram have opposite sides parallel and congruent

so

If the given quadrilateral is a parallelogram

then

----> equation A

and

----> equation B

solve equation A

solve equation B

The value of x is the same in both equations

That means

For x=8 inches opposite side are congruent

therefore

Yes, one pair of opposite sides could measure  10 in., and the other pair could measure 13 in.

the final function for the graph becomes x-2=-1. before graphing you solve the equation, where x=1. then graph accordingly.   ( on the x-axis, 1 on the line will possess a vertical line.)
