Question

Insert two commas to separate the coordinate adjectives.

At the end of my hectic day, the quiet tranquil country roads were a relaxing change
of pace from the noisy fast-paced traffic of the city.

Answer 1

The correct placement of commas in the sentence is after 'quiet' and 'noisy' to separate the coordinate adjectives that describe the same noun.

Step-by-step explanation:

The subject of the question is to insert two commas in a sentence to correctly separate coordinate adjectives. The original sentence reads: 'At the end of my hectic day, the quiet tranquil country roads were a relaxing change of pace from the noisy fast-paced traffic of the city.' When breaking down the sentence, we identify that 'quiet' and 'tranquil' are the coordinate adjectives describing the country roads. Coordinate adjectives are equal adjectives that describe the same noun and should be separated by commas. Hence the sentence with the correct comma placement becomes: 'At the end of my hectic day, the quiet, tranquil country roads were a relaxing change of pace from the noisy, fast-paced traffic of the city.'

Answer 2

At the end of my hectic day, the quiet tranquil country roads were a relaxing change

of pace, from the noisy fast-paced traffic of the city.
