independent clause--could stand alone as a sentence

B. Both Gould and Keith Jarrett have recorded Bach's Well Tempered Clavier, and both have played surprising versions of the music



both independent clauses

Answer 2

A. Because he wanted to write pieces that would help people tune their pianos. = Dependent



Bach composed The Well Tempered Clavier. = Independent



B. Both Gould and Keith Jarrett have recorded Bach's Well Tempered Clavier = Independent



and both have played surprising versions of the music = Dependent





The basic info on the differences is as follows:



Independent Clause



An independent clause is a group of words that contains a subject and verb and expresses a complete thought. An independent clause is a sentence.

Jim studied in the Sweet Shop for his chemistry quiz.



Dependent Clause



A dependent clause is a group of words that contains a subject and verb but does not express a complete thought. A dependent clause cannot be a sentence. Often a dependent clause is marked by a dependent marker word.

When Jim studied in the Sweet Shop for his chemistry quiz . . . (What happened when he studied? The thought is incomplete.)







To help you better understand this for the future go to this web site. There is where I copied and pasted the info from above.

Hope this was helpful!

Answer 3

A. Is an independent Clause because it can stand alone with out having to finish out the sentence with more of a story and without need real punctuation. But I would suggest writing if you can fix it

B. Is a dependent Clause because it needs the extra comma and story to go along with it.
