(1 point)

O because

O however

O at first

O eventually

Answer 1

The best transition word or phrase to use at the beginning of the second sentence to show how the ideas are connected is **"eventually."**

So the revised sentence would read: "They agreed he could use his allowance to buy one." (eventually).

This conveys that after Mike’s persistent begging, his parents ultimately reached a decision.
