@Conqueror

OpenStudy (anonymous):

am i right??!?

OpenStudy (conqueror):

Well a compound sentence is like a sentence with more than one subject. So, do you think that sentence in the question is a sentence with more than 1 subject?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no... so it would be simple?

OpenStudy (conqueror):

Well, a simple sentence is just an ordinary sentence so do you think it's an ordinary sentence?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ITS A RUN-ON?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@Conqueror

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (conqueror):

Do you know what a run on sentence is?

OpenStudy (conqueror):

I'm trying to help you so you can understand these problems and not have more problems in the future.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

alone two sentences make perfect sense but combined it makes a run-on

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so wats the answer?

OpenStudy (conqueror):

You tell me. After all of those definitions of the choices.

OpenStudy (conqueror):

Are you confused...?

OpenStudy (conqueror):

Well, if you are. Given by those definitions, the answer is a run-on sentence because different sentences are combined.

OpenStudy (texaschic101):

I agree....run-on
