Answer 3

To break each word into syllables, follow these steps for each word:

1. Look for vowel sounds: Identify the vowels (a, e, i, o, u, and sometimes y) in the word. Each vowel sound usually represents one syllable.

2. Divide the word: Separate the word into smaller parts by placing a hyphen (-) between each syllable.

Here are the words broken into syllables:

progressive: pro-gres-sive
intolerable: in-tol-er-a-ble
graduated: grad-u-a-ted
disrespectful: dis-re-spec-tful

Please note that different dictionaries might have slightly different ways of breaking words into syllables, based on pronunciation differences or variations.
