Simple, compound, complex, compound complex?

English

Answer:

1. Compound

2. Simple

3. Compound-Complex

Explanation:

Compound sentences are those that link two independent clauses, usually with a coordinating conjunction (FANBOYS: for, and, nor, but, or, yet, and so). Simple sentences just have one subject and one verb. Complex sentences are usually made up of an independent clause and a dependent clause. Compound-complex are those that are both compound and complex.

(Note that independent clauses are sentences that can stand-alone and are grammatically and literally correct; eg. <em>I went to the store</em>. Dependent clauses are sentences that cannot stand alone because they're missing either a subject or a verb; eg. <em>because he ran</em>.)

1. "They were out of tacos, and my brother was still hungry."

We see that the first clause "They were out of tacos" is independent because it can stand alone, and the second clause "my brother was still hungry" is also independent. They are linked by "and", which is a coordinating conjunction, so this is a compound sentence.

2. "We hurried to another restaurant to buy food."

There is a simple subject, "we", and a simple verb "hurried". Since there are no different clauses - just one - this is a simple sentence.

3. "After we got more food for my brother, he was happy, and I knew we would need to plan ahead of our next meal."

Notice that we have the dependent clause "After we got more food for my brother"; the two independent clauses "he was happy" and "I knew we would need to plan ahead of our next meal"; and a coordinating conjunction "and". Thus, this is compound-complex.

Hope this helps!

Dramatic irony means that
Naily [24]
Dramatic irony means that the audience knows something the characters do not. For example, in the beginning of Hamlet, we know immediately that Claudius was the one who killed Hamlet's father, however, he doesn't know that from the very start.

The oven tray is 600mm by 500mm. A cake tin is 25cm in diameter. How many cake tins can jenny fit on the oven tray at one time?
Umnica [9.8K]
Given:
2 shapes: rectangle (tray) and circle (cake tin)

We need to find the area of each shape.

We need to convert mm to cm. 1mm = 0.1cm
600mm x 0.1cm/1mm = 60cm
500mm x 0.1cm/1mm = 50cm

Area of the Tray = 60cm * 50cm = 3,000cm²

Area of the cake tin = π r²
r = d/2 = 25/2 = 12.5cm

Area of the cake tin = 3.14 * (12.5cm)²
Area of the cake tin = 3.14 * 156.25cm²
Area of the cake tin = 490.625cm²

Area of the tray ÷ Area of the cake tin = number of cake tins that fit
3,000cm² ÷ 490.625cm² = 6.11 or 6 cake tins.

Only 6 cake tins Jenny can fit on the oven tray at  one time.
