Explanation:

To distinguish an attributive from a predicative adjective, we must observe the following:

- An attributive adjective comes immediately before the noun it modifies. The sentence, in this case, can have any type of verb.

- A predicative adjective, on the other hand, comes after the noun it refers to. More specifically, it comes after a linking verb. It can thus function as a subject complement.

Let's illustrate this with two of the sentences above, both using the same adjective "beautiful":

8. Habib knitted a beautiful scarf for his mother. --> "Beautiful" is attributive in this case, since it comes immediately before the noun "scarf".

9. The posters in Leela's room are beautiful. --> "Beautiful" is predicative here, coming after the liking verb "are" and referring back to the noun "posters".
