Work Step by Step

To represent the grammatical structure of sentences consisting of occurrences of the word "yes" followed by the same number of the word "no," we can create a syntax diagram. Below is a set of syntax diagrams for such sentences: ``` start | / \ yes no yes | yes ``` - The "start" symbol indicates the beginning of a sentence. - The "yes" symbol represents the occurrence of the word "yes." - The "no" symbol represents the occurrence of the word "no." - The first diagram shows the structure where a sentence starts with "yes" and is followed by "no." - The second diagram shows the structure where "yes" is followed by another occurrence of "yes," forming a chain of "yes" occurrences. These diagrams ensure that the sentences consist of occurrences of "yes" followed by the same number of occurrences of "no." Any deviation from this structure would result in an invalid sentence.
