Answer 1

Toe dancing was developed in the early nineteenth century, but it was not widely used until the 1830s.

Step-by-step explanation:

The comma and the conjunction but separate the two sentences.

Answer 2

B) Toe dancing was developed in the early nineteenth century, but it was not widely used until the 183s.
