Which sentence creates a logical comparison?Lindsey’s inventions are much safer than Edward is.
Lindsey’s inventions are much safer than Edward’s.
Lindsey’s inventions are much safer than Edward.
Lindsey’s inventions are much safer than with Edward.

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: The correct answer should be Lindsey's inventions are much safer than Edward's, because the word omitted due to word economy is Edward's (inventions). Other sentences provide somewhat nonsensical comparisons, but with given context might be correct.
Answer 2
Answer:

Answer: Lindsey’s inventions are much safer than Edward’s.

In this sentence, the items that are being compared are Lindsey's inventions and Edward's inventions. However, as the second part is repetitive and it is easy to imply its purpose, the word "inventions" can be omitted. However, for the sentence to be clear, the possessive has to be maintained. Therefore, the correct way of writing the second party of the sentence would be "Edward's."

Select the word that correctly completes the sentence: As the flood waters _____, people began to clean up the damage that had been done. abated induced implicated vocation

Answers

Answer: The word that correctly completes the sentence is "abated".

Explanation: The word "abated" is a conjugated form of the verb "to abate". Moreover, it makes reference to something that has diminished in intensity. In other words, it is used to refer to something that has become less intense. In the case of this sentence, "abated" can be used with "flood waters" to mean that the flood waters have become less strong, which has allowed people to fix the damages. "Abated" is the only word among the options that could fill in the blank since, unlike the other words, it adds coherence to the sentence.

The answer is abated

Choose the phrase that's correctly capitalized. A. a Greek myth
B. Martin Luther King day
C. an Italian Grocery
D. a cold, snowy Winter

Answers

Answer : A. a Greek myth

Among the phrases above, the phrase "a Greek myth" is correctly capitalized. You can only capitalized proper nouns. Proper nouns include names of persons, places, and organizations. In the second option, the word king in the phrase "Martin Luther King day" should not be capitalized because it is not a proper noun so do with the grocery in "an Italian Grocery" and winter in "a cold, snowy Winter". The Greek in the phrase "a Greek myth" is correctly capitalized because it is a proper noun.
A. a Greek myth 

Greek should be capitalized in that sentence, and is correctly capitalized.
