There is no predicate adjective in that sentence. In order for a sentence to have a predicate adjective, the verb must be a linking verb.
Example:
Mary is happy. ("is" is a linking verb, and "happy" is a predicate adjective)
In the sentence "Your sister Mary teaches math and physical education at the high school", the verb (teaches) is transitive (a type of action verb that takes a direct object).
The predicate adjective in this sentence would be careful.
Predicate: "is" Adjective: "oldest" Noun: "dancing"

Not exactly. A predicate nominative (the noun or a pronoun following a linking verb that restates the subject of the sentence) can be a subject complement; but a subject complement can also be a predicate adjective (the adjective following a linking verb which describes the subject of the sentence).In other words, a subject complement can be a predicate nominative or a predicate adjective.
An exclamatory sentence expresses strong emotions or feelings and often begins with "What" or "How." A predicate adjective follows a linking verb and describes the subject. For example, in the sentence "What a beautiful day it is!" the predicate adjective "beautiful" describes "day." Another example is "How exciting the game was!" where "exciting" describes "the game."
There is no predicate adjective in that sentence.
The word "cute" in the following sentence: He is cute. A predicate adjective is just an adjective in the predicate of a sentence, or following a verb.

Helpless is the predicate adjective.
A predicate adjective is an adjective that follows a linking verb and describes the subject of the sentence. For example, in the sentence "The flowers are beautiful," "beautiful" is the predicate adjective. A predicate nominative, on the other hand, is a noun or pronoun that follows a linking verb and renames the subject. In the sentence "She is a teacher," "teacher" is the predicate nominative.
A predicate nominative is a noun or pronoun that renames the subject of a sentence, while a predicate adjective is an adjective that describes the subject of a sentence. Predicate nominatives typically follow a linking verb, such as "is," "was," or "become," while predicate adjectives modify the subject of the sentence directly.
The word 'fun' is both a noun and an adjective.In the given sentence the word 'fun' can be said to be either a predicate nominative or a predicate adjective.
I think its "IMMATURE" Nope, its "quite", because "immature" is the adjective, so the PREdicate comes BEFORE the adjective. How can quite be adjective? It describes how much immature John is... there fore it becomes an adverb... Am I wrong? If so, then how?
False. A predicate adjective describes or modifies the subject of a sentence, typically following a linking verb, rather than renaming it. For example, in the sentence "The sky is blue," "blue" is the predicate adjective that describes the subject "the sky." Renaming the subject is the function of a predicate nominative, not a predicate adjective.
Predicate: "is" Adjective: "oldest" Noun: "dancing"
There is no predicate adjective in that sentence because there is no linking verb. The adjectives are "powerful" and "far away".
Yes, the sentence does have a predicate adjective. A predicate adjective is an adjective that follows a linking verb and restates the subject. A linking verb is a verb that acts like an equal sign; the subject of the sentence is or becomes the object of the verb (TEACHER = ANGRY).
