Answer:

I think the answer is C.

Step-by-step explanation:

A might be correct, but i think its wrong because the correct will be "lived in a big, old, brick house" but there is no comma between old and brick so i think A is a wrong choice

B is wrong because the correct sentence will be "the young students were late for every single event that day" no commas were necessary in this sentence so i think B is a wrong choice also

D is wrong because the correct sentence will be "Janice wore a elegant, silver bracelet" since bracelet is not another adjective, there shouldn't be another comma in there so D is wrong too

So i think the best choice will be C. I hope this helps in some way

Answer: The 'C' one is correct.

Step-by-step explanation: the sentence is "The young dancers were agile, lively, energetic athletes" the word 'agile' means active so it is other word and the word 'lively' means strong so it is another word and in the last the word is 'energetic' means tireless so it is another word. so basically commas use at that place where 3 t 4 words are using but they having different meaning.
