1. The problem asks to identify the sentence that correctly uses semicolons. 2. Semicolons are used to separate items in a list when the items themselves contain commas. 3. Let's analyze each sentence: - Sentence 1: "Our trip included Detroit, Michigan; Toronto, Ontario; and Buffalo, New York." Here, semicolons separate the city-state pairs, which contain commas. This is correct usage. - Sentence 2: "Our trip included Detroit; Michigan, Toronto; Ontario, and Buffalo; New York." Semicolons incorrectly separate city and state individually, which is not correct. - Sentence 3: "Our trip included; Detroit, Michigan, Toronto, Ontario, and Buffalo, New York." Semicolon is incorrectly placed after "included". - Sentence 4: "Our trip included Detroit, Michigan, Toronto, Ontario, and Buffalo, New York." No semicolons used; commas only, which can cause confusion in complex lists. 4. Therefore, the correct sentence is: Our trip included Detroit, Michigan; Toronto, Ontario; and Buffalo, New York. 5. Final answer: Sentence 1 is correct.
