Which statement is a compound sentence?


Deanna will not receive the perfect attendance reward yet.


Send the flowers to her at home or at work.


I really want to go to the party, yet I don’t want to ride with Benjamin.


We must arrive on time for this class.

Would this be I really want to go to the party, yet I don’t want to ride with Benjamin.?

Yes, you're right. It's a sentence made up of two independent clauses (could be sentences by themselves) and they're joined by one of the coordinating conjunctions.

Thank You!

You're welcome!

Yes, you are correct. The statement "I really want to go to the party, yet I don’t want to ride with Benjamin" is a compound sentence. A compound sentence is a sentence that contains two or more independent clauses, which are complete thoughts that can stand alone as separate sentences. In this case, the independent clauses are "I really want to go to the party" and "I don’t want to ride with Benjamin." The conjunction "yet" is used to connect these two clauses, making it a compound sentence.
