The sentence that reflects the correct usage of a plural possessive noun is the following one: Olympic snowboarders' determination drives them through the rigorous training required to remain competitive in the sport.

The possessive of most plural nouns is formed by adding an apostrophe only (snowboarders' determination).  That is why that sentence is the correct option.

However, there are plural nouns which do not end in -s. The possessive of such nouns is formed by adding an apostrophe and an -s to the noun. For instance, "people's power".

Review the main idea. The task of building the pyramid obviously required a huge work force. Which detail best supports the main
Rom4ik [11]
<span>B Experts today estimate 20,000-30,000 laborers worked on the pyramid at any one time.

This is the best option out of all the options. The statement should support the idea that many people were needed to build the pyramid. Options A and C do not really indicate the amount of people the were necessary to build the pyramid. B and D are the only ones that give numbers. Option D however is not correct because even though it says that the work crews needed to be divided into smaller groups, it doesn't give a true indication of the sheer amount of workers needed. Option B is a clear estimate of the tens of thousands of workers necessary to build a pyramid.

Which quote from hip hop planet best describes the cultural complexity of current hip hop music?
soldi70 [24.7K]

I feel like agree with (B) much more because in the question it states that the quote has to show the "cultural complexity" of the genre meaning that its not as static as it was before as mentioned in question A. , but how it evolved over-time thus becoming more complex : branching out into different ideas of race and class .
