Identify the dependent clause and circle the independent clause.

1. Since Carmen was so hungry, she stopped at the deli and bought a sandwich.
2. The train was running late as usual, so Kristen decided to call a taxi.

Answer:

1 is dependent and 2 is independent

Step-by-step explanation:

Carmen was very hungry (first action)

stopped at the deli (second one)

bought a sandwich (third one)

All the actions are DEPENDENT by the previous use of the SINCE

Well

The train was running late as usual (this action happens frequently = AS USUAL)

So this action doesn´t depend on the subsequent (Kristen decided to call a taxi).
