    Answer: D) Complex.

    Explanation: a complex sentence is a sentence formed by an independent clause (a phrase that has complete meaning by itself) and a dependent or subordinate clause (a phrase that has a subject and a predicate but doesn't have complete meaning by itself). The given sentence is an example of a complex sentence, with an independent clause "the Jebusites were conquered" and a subordinate clause "Because David's army entered the city unexpectedly."

    It should be complex because of the second part can stand alone, but the first part cant be its own sentence without adding more to it
