<p>i put ;because</p>

<p>Yeah, the semicolon one didn’t work. I picked the colon one cause the other four just sounded wrong.</p>

<p>I don’t think having a semicolon followed by because is grammatically correct</p>

<p>Yeah - but I thought that colons need to make lists. It can’t only say one thing.</p>

<p>That is why I chose choice E.</p>

<p>What did you guys get for “which word best describes thing” the thing was in the passage about ignorance</p>

<p>Anyone remember what letter the answer to the Father’s Arcane Daughter was?</p>

<p>The colon can also convey a change of idea. The semicolon failed to work since because… is not an independent idea that can stand alone.</p>

<p>@PSATPERSON Development</p>

<p>@DAIMYO Can u explain how you got that?</p>

<p>no the one about comprising… , it had to be the author’s name because it didn’t say comprising of it just said comprising eight</p>

<p>concerning the math with the cost, it was dx/y yes?</p>

<p>D/y= Desired amount of dollars/x; Dx/y:)</p>

<p>No, @tothehoop12, or comprising eight [or whatever else it said] could mean as in the book comprised of that.</p>

<p>does anyone remember the one with apathy and raptness</p>

<p>@smc101 what question are you guys talking about?</p>

<p>@PSATPERSON - it was a fix the sentence question. Something about some author receiving an award for some sort of book series.</p>

<p>It began with "Comprising eight… </p>

<p>Then, was it the [author] or the [author]'s [novel]</p>

<p>@needagoodscore the answer was apathy…desultory</p>

<p>@smc101 I said author’s novel</p>

<p>It was definitely [author]'s [novel].</p>

<p>author’s novel, i concur</p>
