Final answer:
The sentences that correctly use apostrophes for possession in the student's question are: paper route's collections (B), district's polls (B), dollar’s worth at the discount store’s sale (A), Someone's coat (A), rug's design (B), children's friends (A), r's and s's more names listed (B), and Bill and Jack's boat (B).
Step-by-step explanation:
The correct sentences that use the apostrophe for possession accurately are as follows:
- B. Jim's bicycle is missing, and his paper route's collections have also disappeared.
- B. The voter's duty is to appear at his district's polls on Tuesday.
- A. You can get your dollar’s worth at the discount store’s sale.
- A. Someone's coat was found in the lobby.
- B. The rug's design is Oriental.
- A. Our children's friends are welcome here.
- B. The r's and s's have more names listed below them.
- B. Bills and Jack's boat needs a good paint job.
Apostrophes are used to indicate possession and are added to the singular form of a noun or an indefinite pronoun (e.g., Jim's and district's), and after the -s in plural nouns (children's). They are not used to create plurals of nouns or in the case of singular verbs or pronouns.
