The directions are to use affirmative tu commands to fix the following:

1) el perro tiene hambre
2) hay mucha basura en la cocina
3) los platos estan sucios
4) la alfombra estan sucios
5) el coche estan sucios
6) hay polvo en las mesas

My answers are:
1) Juana, come al perro.
2) Adam, saca la basura.
3) Kayla, lava los platos.
4) Juanita, pasa la aspiradora.
5) Craig, lava el coche.
6) Ashley, quita el polvo.

Thanks.

Thank you for using the Jiskha Homework Help Forum. Are you sure you understood what to do?

1. the dog is hungry. You selected, Jane, eat the dog! Depending upon the vocabulary of your textbook, you don't state if you are doing irregular tú commands, as well as affirmative. I would say "Feed the dog!" = Juana, da de comer al perro.

2. and 3. are good.

4. There must be a typo here: La alfombra está sucia OR Las alfombras están sucias. In any event, your answer is good.

5. Again, some sort of typo: Either "El carro está sucio" OR "Los carros están sucios." I suspect it is one car, and then your answer is good.

6. good

Thanks so much. Trying to learn Spanish by homeschool is difficult when the book does not give clear examples.

Great job! Your answers are correct for fixing the given sentences using affirmative tú commands. Here's how you arrived at these answers:

1) To fix the sentence "el perro tiene hambre" (the dog is hungry), you addressed "Juana" and used the affirmative tú command "come" (eat) to command her to feed the dog.

2) For "hay mucha basura en la cocina" (there is a lot of trash in the kitchen), you addressed "Adam" and used the affirmative tú command "saca" (take out) to command him to take out the trash.

3) To address "Kayla" and fix the sentence "los platos están sucios" (the dishes are dirty), you used the affirmative tú command "lava" (wash) to command her to wash the dishes.

4) In the sentence "la alfombra está sucia" (the carpet is dirty), you addressed "Juanita" and used the affirmative tú command "pasa" (vacuum) to command her to vacuum the carpet.

5) For "el coche está sucio" (the car is dirty), you addressed "Craig" and used the affirmative tú command "lava" (wash) to command him to wash the car.

6) Lastly, to fix "hay polvo en las mesas" (there is dust on the tables), you addressed "Ashley" and used the affirmative tú command "quita" (remove) to command her to remove the dust.

Keep up the great work!
