Which analysis of the passage is correct? 1. it contains two compound sentences and one complex sentence
nikdorinn [45]

Answer:

It contains two compound sentences and one complex sentence.

Explanation:

The passage you were given is the following:

All the students signed a petition, but they still needed the faculty's permission to start the club. The students came to the next faculty meeting, and they presented a solid argument. All of their hard work paid off because the students won their campaign.

The options you were given are:

  • It contains two compound sentences and one complex sentence.
  • It contains one compound sentence and two complex sentences.
  • It contains three compound sentences.
  • It contains three complex sentences.

An independent clause is a clause that can stand alone as a sentence. Every sentence must contain a subject and predicate and express a complete thought. Unlike independent clauses, dependent clauses can't stand alone because they lack at least one of these elements.

A compound sentence is a sentence that consists of at least two independent clauses connected by a comma, conjunction, or semicolon.

A complex sentence is a sentence that consists of one independent clause and at least one dependent clause.

Based on this information, we can conclude that the given passage contains two compound sentences and one complex sentence. The first two sentences are compound sentences. Each of them consists of two independent clauses. The third one is a complex sentence that consists of one independent and one dependent clause.
