See comma use #2 for question 2.
You're right. 2 is A.
I'm not sure what you mean for #2 writeacher :/ you said #2 or question 2...do you mean #2 option B could be the answer I'm looking for or??? Because I'm not sure what you meant to be honest...and for #5 yes the two (B and D) are the same I just wasn't sure if it was trying to trick me to pick a different one of not
Sorry, my mistake,I went back to double check on Question #5 and D is not the same as question B. But I'm still thinking the answer is B now looking at because D haves (Baileys's) and B have (Bailey's) that's the difference between the two.

A. Do you know where Bailey shoes are?
B. Do you know where Bailey's shoes are?****
C. Do you know where Baileys' shoes are?
D. Do you know where Baileys's shoes are?
Yes, then B is correct for 5.
What did you decide for 2?
For #2 I figured it couldn't be B because the punctuations don't seem wrong,and D is supposably incorrect, so that leave A and C but I think its A because I think it should be (We went to the store, but we forgot to buy eggs.) Am I wrong :'(
2. A
A. We went to the store, but we forgot to buy eggs.
if the 2nd sentence is short without ","
For example: He went to the store but he forgot.
