Question

1. which sentence uses the word tentative correctly? the results of the test were tentative and required no further review. the team set a tentative date for the meeting but agreed to confirm it later. he was tentative about speaking in front of the class, showing great confidence. her tentative decision was final and could not be changed.

Explanation:

The word "tentative" means not fully worked out or final. In the sentence "The team set a tentative date for the meeting but agreed to confirm it later", it is used correctly as the date is not yet final and needs to be confirmed. In the first option, "tentative" cannot be final. In the second option, it is mis - used as it doesn't convey the meaning of non - final. In the fourth option, if the results require no further review, they are not tentative.

Answer:

The team set a tentative date for the meeting but agreed to confirm it later.
