question 9
which sentence is correctly punctuated?
a who has the jumper cables for the car?
b many people asked if they could watch the film crew shoot the scene?
c janice shouted at the man in front of her!

Explanation:

Sentence A is a proper question and uses a question - mark correctly. Sentence B is a statement (a reported question) and should end with a period, not a question - mark. Sentence C is a statement and should end with a period, not an exclamation point as there is no strong emotion indicated to warrant an exclamation point.

Answer:

A. Who has the jumper cables for the car?
