Answer:

Possessive case of a plural noun ending in -s:

- I didn't have the time to wash the girls' dresses.

Possessive case of a plural noun not ending in -s:

- People's manners have greatly improved after the workshop on empathy.

Explanation:

The possessive case, also known as the genitive case, usually consists in the addition of 's to the ending of a noun to indicate that that noun is the possessor of something. For example: Sheila's books. / Erica's mother. / John's letters.

<u>When the noun already ends in -s in its plural form, all we need to do is add the apostrophe to indicate the possessive case:</u>

- I didn't have the time to wash the girls' dresses.

<u>When the noun has a plural form that does not end in -s, we need to add 's just like we would to its singular form:</u>

- People's manners have greatly improved after the workshop on empathy.

Cecily had created an entire relationship with love letters included (that she herself had written), a ring, a broken engagement, and a reconciliation. All chronically told in her personal diary.

IRINA_888 [86]

Riis led to the formation of tenement housing commission and also led to the formation of tenement housing board to solve problems like crowding, small houses, no access to sanitation.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Tenement housing was a necessary for the people living in that area in the United States of America because the houses they were living in originally were in very bad conditions and did not have much facilities like sanitation, light, air and so on. They were very very small in sizes leading to the suffocation of the people living in those houses.

With the formation of tenement housing commission by Riis, there were provisions made for building up of the tenement housing. With these houses, the problem of crowding of those people would have ended and the tenement houses also had the facilities of light and air. There was also access to sanitation.
