The sentence that contains a subject that is compound in form but singular in meaning is: **"A can of frank and beans is my favorite dinner."**

In this sentence, "a can of frank and beans" is the subject, and although it has a compound structure ("frank and beans"), it refers to a single item (a can). Thus, the subject is compound in form but singular in meaning.

The correct answer is **B is**.

The complete sentence would read: "The news is on when I walk in the door." "News" is a singular noun, so the verb should be "is."

A verb in the conditional mood is formed **using an auxiliary verb paired with a main verb to describe what will happen as a result of a certain situation.**

Typically, this includes using forms of the auxiliary verb "would" (or "could" or "might") along with a main verb to indicate hypothetical situations, possibilities, or obligations depending on certain conditions. For example: "If it rains, we would stay indoors."

The correct answer is **using an auxiliary verb paired with a main verb to describe what will happen as a result of a certain situation.**

In conditional sentences, this typically involves using auxiliary verbs like "would," "could," or "might" alongside the main verb to express hypothetical situations or conditions. For example: "If I won the lottery, I would travel the world."
