Identify the labels for X and Y in the following tree.
Show Hint
- X: Verb, Y: Adjective
- X: Adjective, Y: Adjective
- X: Adjective, Y: Verb
- X: Verb, Y: Verb
The Correct Option is A
Solution and Explanation
Step 1: Analyze the base word.
The root word is "use." "Use" functions as a verb. When prefixed with "re-," it becomes "reuse," which is also a verb (meaning "to use again"). Therefore, X must be labeled as a Verb.
Step 2: Add the suffix.
The suffix "-able" attaches to verbs to form adjectives (e.g., "read" → "readable," "break" → "breakable"). Thus, "reuse + able" = "reusable," which is an adjective. Therefore, Y must be labeled as an Adjective.
Step 3: Eliminate wrong options.
- Option (B) X: Adjective, Y: Adjective — incorrect because "reuse" is not an adjective.
- Option (C) X: Adjective, Y: Verb — incorrect for the same reason, plus "reusable" is not a verb.
- Option (D) X: Verb, Y: Verb — incorrect because "reusable" is not a verb.
Hence the only correct option is (A).
\[
\boxed{\text{X = Verb, Y = Adjective}}
