what do you think?

Answer 2

complex sentence: a sentence containing a subordinate clause or clauses.
simple: a sentence of only one clause, with a single subject and predicate.
compound: a sentence with more than one subject or predicate.
compound complex: a sentence having two or more coordinate independent clauses and one or more dependent clauses.
based of these what do you think best describes the sentence?

Answer 3

"My friend is excited for the concert" is an idependent clause

"she has to leave early" is an independant clause. "but" is a coordinating conjunction that ties two independents together.

"because she has to be home by 10" is a dependant clause

sooooo what do you think?
