Answer 1

Do you have any ideas on what it might be?

Answer 2

c or d

Answer 3

Well we can eliminate C, but D will be correct. Do you have an idea of what it can be now that we emilinated C?

Answer 4

D

Answer 5

Yes it is D. If you look at the question its asking you "Which two examples" so other than D, which one do you think it is?

Why can C be eliminated, and why is D correct?

btw, you gave them the answer then asked what they think the answer is-

Answer 7

Uh, okay so we are going to start by eliminating option B. This is because citations need to include where they came from, in this case 23. So our answer must have that 23. We can also eliminate option C and this is because they included the (23) inside the parentheses. When doing citations, the quote is in the quotations and the place you got it from needs to go in parentheses after the quote. Now we are left with A, D, and E. From these, which do you think? Base this on what you have learned, or at least should have learned, in class so far.
