5. c. "I don't know the answer," Brian admitted honestly.

When punctuating dialogue, the part that is said aloud is surrounded by quotation marks. If the dialogue tag is after the dialogue and the dialogue would usually end with a period, the period becomes a comma and is placed within the quotation marks. Then the dialogue is after the closed quotations followed by the period. The period coming after the dialogue tag attaches it to what was being said.

6. following no set pattern

The prefix /ir/ means not. This then negates regular and identifies the definition as not regular. When something is not regular it follows no set pattern.

7. verb

The -ate suffix can be used to indicate a word as either a verb or an adjective. In this case, it is an adjective.
