Answer:

An example of an absolute phrase is "Wanting a car, he saved money to buy it."

Step-by-step explanation:

An absolute phrase is formed when a participle and a noun form an independent clause in this case we can change "He wanted a car" for "Wanting a car" where "Wanting" is the participle and "a car" is the noun, then we add the second part that describes de full sentence which is always connected with a comma.
