    The correct answer is "esta". This is because "esta" is the correct form of the verb "estar" in the third person singular form, which is used to indicate the location or state of someone or something. In this sentence, "Marisa no esta en Northfield" means "Marisa is not in Northfield."

    • D.

      Eres

    Correct Answer
    B. Estamos
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "estamos." This is because "estamos" is the first person plural form of the verb "estar" in Spanish, which means "to be." Since the subject of the sentence is "nosotras," which means "we" in feminine form, the correct verb form to use is "estamos."

      Estamos

    Correct Answer
    A. Estan
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "estan." In Spanish, the verb "estar" is used to express temporary states or conditions, such as emotions or physical states. In this sentence, "Mis amigas" (my friends) is the subject, and "contentas" (happy) is the adjective describing their state. Since the friends are the ones who are happy, the correct form of the verb "estar" to use is "estan," which is the third person plural form.

    • D.

      Esta

    Correct Answer
    B. Somos
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "somos" because the sentence is referring to both the speaker's mother and themselves. "Somos" is the first person plural form of the verb "ser" (to be) in Spanish, which is used when talking about a group that includes the speaker.

      Estoy

    • D.

      Estan

    Correct Answer
    B. Son
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "son" because "las tres menos cuarto" means "quarter to three" in English. Since "three" is a plural noun, the verb "ser" (to be) should also be in the plural form, which is "son."

      Somos

    Correct Answer
    A. Es
    Explanation
