Allegedly recovered from the legendary King Solomon’s Mines, the uncut, rough tone was acquired in 1544 by the scandalous De Luc

a family. Gifted as part of a dowry in 1612, the fate of the diamond, along with several other high profile gems, were
unknown after the Franco-Spanish war of 1635, before it mysteriously reappeared over three centuries later.

Sold last year to the Moretti Brothers jewellers for just over £22 million, neither time
nor conflict have dimmed its brilliance. Indeed, the twin eighty-year-old brothers suggest that the value of the now cut and polished 90 carat diamond has already increased by at least 50%. It will be on display for four weeks only.

user100 [1]

The correct answer is D.

The Supreme Court's decision in Plessy v. Ferguson was unconstitutional because it was not consistent with the 14th ammenment.

The 14th ammendment grants citizenship and equal civil and legal rights to African Americans and slaves who were emancipated after the American Civil War.

Segregation laws were explicitly againts the ammendment because they did not provide equal protection and liberties to non-whites. By forcing them to sit separated from white people, african-americans were being banned from fully excersing their rights.

On the lush tropical island ________ fruits and flowers grew in ________.
barxatty [35]

Answer:

On the lush tropical island, exotic fruits and flowers grew in abundance

Explanation:

I think exotic would be the best choice in the sentence because if you're on a tropical, you should find wild animals and exotic fruits, and abundance would also be the best choice because also in a tropical island, you would also find lots of different kinds of flowers.

Write an original short story which clearly illustrates the friendship between a boy and his dog. 350 words ​
FromTheMoon [43]

Answer:

Once a boy and his dog were sitting, looking through the valley and the boy said this would be a perfect spot for a party. So they went to the Daily Market and bought 50 lolly bags, 200 varieties of soft drink, and 25 board games.

But then he stopped and thought how am I going to carry all this stuff? So then he had to go and get 275 shopping bags, but then he stopped. How am I going to carry all these bags back to my house? So he had to go back and get 150 trolleys. But then he stopped and thought, now how am I going to push all these trolleys?

So he went back and bought 50 of the latest robot-helpers that had 10 arms to help you with anything. After all that pushing, packing, walking, and buying, the boy and his dog with the robots finally got back to the house.

About half an hour later the boy, the dog, and the robots had set up a big party area. So now the boy thought, its time I phoned some people to come. In the end he had phoned his best friend Max but he was at the doctors, he rang Sarah (someone on his basketball team.) but she was at the shopping centre with her mum, and his other friend Luke was at the cinema with his dad.

By this time it was already 5:30 pm, and the robots had run off and so the boy sighed. His dog howled too, and then the boy looked into his dog’s eyes and said well at least I have you. Then the dog jumped on the boy, licking him and rolling around and the boy was laughing so hard. It turns out it was a great party after all.

The end

Letter Idea That I Made for an Automatic Irrigation System, via Arduino:

Dear (<u>The Person The Letter Is For</u>),

I have noticed that many of my plants die due to neglect. People (including me) don't water their plants. This problem effected me and most-likely lots of others very much because we have put in lots of my time and money into making a garden, just for it to fail. In fact, the Ancient Civilization of Egypt collapsed because the Egyptians were not able to properly maintain water levels in plants, leading the plants to wilt, a lack in water because of wasting the water on the plant, the Egyptians to die of dehydration, and  the fall of Ancient Egypt. So I made an Arduino-based automatic irrigation system to help other like me and obviously myself maintain a healthy garden. This device will water my plants whenever they are dehydrated, and it will water in correct amounts, due to the soil moisture sensor in the setup. This solution worked, and I feel happy because the solution worked, it was very inexpensive, and it was super easy to make.

Sincerely,

<u>(You)</u>
