Which is proper English 20a My best friend and I are going to Hawaii this summer. 20b me summer?

The proper English is 20a: My best friend and I are going to Hawaii this summer.

Explanation:

* Subject-verb agreement: The subject of the sentence is "My best friend and I," which is plural. Therefore, the verb needs to be plural as well ("are going").

* Pronoun case: When "I" is used as part of a compound subject, it remains in the nominative case ("I").

20b is incorrect because it lacks the subject ("me") and the verb ("are going").
