1. d)She smiled as she opened the package.

2. independent clause

3. When we go to school in the morning, we need to take our lunches and our backpacks.

4. the words, phrases, and clauses that provide details and descriptions

Step-by-step explanation:

1). A dependent clause is a fragment of a sentence that contains the subject, a verb but does not make sense to the reader alone. Hence, it is dependent on the independent clause to be meaningful. In this case, the sentence: "She smiled as she opened the package" contains a dependent clause, which is "as she opened the package".

This clause cannot stand alone and make sense, hence, it is a dependent clause.

2) An independent clause is that clause containing a group of words that has a subject and a predicate (verb inclusive) and makes a complete sentence. In other words, the independent clause can stand alone and be meaningful to the reader or hearer.

3. As mentioned above, a dependent clause cannot make a complete sentence alone and does not make sense individually. Therefore, in the sentence: "When we go to school in the morning, we need to take our lunches and our backpacks".

"When we go to school in the morning" is the dependent clause beginning the sentence.

4. A modifier, in English language, is a part of a sentence which can be a word, clause or phrase whose function is to describe or provide details of another word in the sentence. As the name implies, modifiers modify i.e. to make changes to something.

step-by-step explanation:

in standard form:

a= dictionaries

b= maps

you have to buy 3 dictionaries, so put a 3 next to the a (dictionaries) so that you can multiply them by each other.

a3+b= 60 (the amount of money you have)

we already know the cost of a=15 so replace a with $15

($15 x 3)+b=60

multiply 15 and 3 to get $45 and replace it with $45

45+b=60

and then replace b with 15 to get the total:

45+15=60

that means you have $15 left after buying 3 dictionaries.

15 divided by the cost of a map ($5) equals 3.

so you can buy 3 maps.

sorry if it was confusing!
