OpenStudy (jgirl128):

an adjective phrase is a phrase that tells us something about the noun it's modifying for example: matthew is pretty bad at football __________

it's definitely not C or D

what do you think the answer is?

OpenStudy (jgirl128):

the sentence is talking about the laundry detergent by adding the "bottle of" you're describing it by saying it's a "bottle of laundry detergent" rather than just saying "Do you know where I put the laundry detergent?"

so the answer would be B because "bottle" is modifying detergent
