Is it B?

Is the underlined word a predicate nominative or a predicate adjective?

Those bananas might still be ((tasty)), but they are becoming mushy.

A. predicate nominative
B. predicate adjective

A predicate nominative is the first noun following a linking verb such as the verb to be in all of its forms. A predicate adjective is the first adjective after it. Having this in mind, as well as the fact that the word tasty is an adjective, and not a noun, the correct answer is indeed B. predicate adjective, you are right. :)
