I would say that he is selfish.
Jerry isn't grateful for that nickel the narrator gave him as he believes it is not enough given that everybody else gave more. He is acting rude and inconsiderate and doesn't think about the fact that the narrator may not have more money.

Which statement is an example of a compound sentence?A. Paolo missed his girlfriend, but he knew she'd be back soon.B. Cora hope
natima [27]
First off, a compound sentence is a sentence that contains at least two independent clauses. That tells us <em><u>C</u></em> is out almost immediately because it has a dependent clause, "After Maria finished dinner". Next, is <em><u>B</u></em>, That's a simple sentence, there's no joining method or comma and it only has one subject and one predicate. D isn't right either, it just about the same as <u><em>B</em></u><em />. Your answer would be <em><u>A. Paolo missed his girlfriend, but he knew she'd be back soon.</u></em><u /><u /> This sentence has a joining clause, and two <em>independent </em>subjects.

Hope this helps,
♥<em>A.W.E.<u>S.W.A.N.</u></em>♥
