Given the image, which word(s) in the sentence should be hyphenated?

Authorities-say

transferred

transferred-locations.

Answer explanation

"transferred" is the answer because when you write on lined paper, you should not pass the second margin. Also, be sure to divide the word by syllables, so it should be "trans" on the first line, then "ferred" on the second line.
