Answer 1

The sentences provided contain examples of coordinating, correlative, and subordinating conjunctions. The correct identification labels the conjunctions as coordinating for 'but', correlative for 'either...or', and subordinating for 'provided that', 'if', 'unless', 'since', and 'although'. Two sentences did not contain conjunctions but rather compound subjects.

Step-by-step explanation:

Identification of Conjunctions in Sentences

Conjunctions connect words, phrases, or clauses in sentences and are categorized as coordinating, correlative, or subordinating. Here are the conjunctions identified in each sentence with their respective types:

1. Coordinating conjunction: 'but' - It connects two independent clauses in the sentence.
2. No conjunction used. 'Andrews and McMillan' represent a compound subject rather than a conjunction joining clauses.
3. Subordinating conjunction: 'provided that' - It introduces a condition to the main clause.
4. The conjunctions 'either' and 'or' are correlative conjunctions, working together to join parallel structures.
5. Subordinating conjunction: 'if' - It introduces a conditional clause.
6. Subordinating conjunction: 'unless' - It introduces a condition that is necessary for the main clause to be true.
7. No conjunction used. 'Both typewriters and word processors' represent a compound subject rather than a conjunction joining clauses.
8. Subordinating conjunction: 'since' - It introduces a reason for the action in the main clause.
9. Subordinating conjunction: 'although' - It introduces a contrast to the main clause.

Therefore, the correct sequence identifying the types of conjunctions used is: Coordinating, none (compound subject), Subordinating, Correlative, Subordinating, Subordinating, none (compound subject), Subordinating, Subordinating.
