Some of the following sentences are correct, and some are run-ons and comma splices

Remember that a run-on sentence includes two independent clauses without proper
punctuation between them. A comma splice has an insufficient comma that needs to be
followed by a fanboys or that needs to be changed to a semicolon or a period. Identify
whether the sentence is correct (ok), a run-on (ro), or a comma splice (cs). Then correct each
run-on or comma splice by making one of the clauses dependent or by using a comma, a
fanboys and a comma, a semicolon, or a period.
The noise of the helicopter annoyed the musicians and ruined the concert. (ok, ro, cs)

What will be an ideal response?


ok: one independent clause with two verbs joined by and
