For each what sentences identify the simple predicate and whether it is an intransitive a transitive or linking verb The drunken kid crashed his car?

Here's the breakdown of the sentence:

* Simple Predicate: "crashed"

* Verb Type: Transitive

Explanation:

* Simple Predicate: This is the verb phrase that tells us what the subject is doing. In this case, it's "crashed."

* Transitive Verb: A transitive verb requires a direct object. The direct object is the thing that receives the action of the verb. In this sentence, "car" is the direct object. The drunken kid performed the action of "crashing" on the car.
