Which sentence correctly uses a hyphen? the pecan-covered cake was super moist. the chocolate-cake was gone before the party ended. the dessert tray-offerings were many and mostly chocolate. the cupcakes were covered in delicious-chocolate shavings.

The pecan-covered cake was super moist.

Explanation:

Generally, a hyhen is used to combine two or more words when they come before a noun they modify and act as a single idea. In this case, pecan covered is describing the cake. Note, how I did not hyphenate pecan covered in these sentences because it doesn't come directly before the noun. Some words are always hyphenated, but none of the words here.

the correct answer is   d. a picture depicting people applauding a country's leader.
