How should the subject-verb agreement in this sentence be changed, if at all? Both the ranger and the camper sees the bear.

The sentence should be changed as there is no subject-verb agreement. The correct form of the verb should be in plural instead of singular. So the correct sentence is “Both the ranger and the camper see the bear.”

Even though both subject nouns are singular (ranger and camper), the rule of compound subject applies here.  In this case singular nouns are united by the preposition “and” to make a plural subject. Therefore, the verb should be in the plural (see) to have subject-verb agreement.

Answer:

Both the ranger and the camper see the bear.

Explanation:

The subject is plural so the verb is see. If the subject were singular as in “ the ranger”, it would be “sees the bear”.

How does Nelson Mandela obtain freedom - like how does he earn it for himself and others?
IRISSAK [1]

Nelson Mandela (1918-2013), the first black president of South Africa, was a forceful anti-apartheid activist and member of the ANC (African National Congress), a black-liberation group. He was arrested in December 1956 with 100 other activists on charges of treason. Mandela went on trial that same year and eventually was acquitted in 1961.

In 1962, Mandela went to Algeria for training in guerrilla warfare and sabotage, returning to his country later that year, where he was arrested again and sentenced to five years in prison.

On June 12, 1964, he was sentenced to life imprisonment, tried for sabotage, treason and violent conspiracy.

In prison, Mandela became a national and international symbol for fighting against social injustice, apartheid and violation of human rights. He brought hope to South Africa's black population for a nonracial democracy, free from apartheid.

On Feb. 11, 1990, mainly because of popular support, the South African government released Mandela.

In April 1994, Mandela won South Africa's first elections by universal suffrage.
