Question

read the sentence below and the directions that follow.
while she was working on her paper for social studies, andi decided to verify some information from the websites she examined. the root ver- means \true.\ the affix -fy means \to make,\ or \to do.\ select the meaning of \verify\ as it is used in the sentence.
○ research something later
○ confirm something is accurate
○ prove something is not factual
○ copy something accurately

Explanation:

To determine the meaning of "verify" in the sentence, we analyze the affix information: "ver -" means "true" and "-fy" means "to make" or "to do". So "verify" should involve making something true or confirming its accuracy. Among the options, "confirm something is accurate" matches this. "Research something later" is not about confirming accuracy, "prove something is not factual" is the opposite, and "copy something accurately" is about copying, not verifying.

Answer:

confirm something is accurate
