Read the paragraph.

The icy slope stretched before Jake, its surface glinting in the blindingly bright sunlight. Jake dropped into a crouch and tried to pretend that
all would go well, visualizing himself gliding down the hill with a deft professional grace Instead of skidding along like an accident prone amateur.
Which two words from the paragraph should have a hyphen between them?
1. Icy slope
2. bright sunlight
3. deft professional
4. accident prone

Answer:

accident- prone

Step-by-step explanation:

i'm not sure what the english rule on this one is here i just know that you can't properly put a hyphen with any of the others and often when i read accident- prone is written like that.
