Answer 1

I find a lot of the time I need to adjust the position of the image to align with the text. You can do this by wrapping the text and image in a div with position relative and then assigning position absolute on the image. Then you ca add top and margin left to adjust the position relative to the text. https://jsfiddle.net/edhescqn/3/

HTML:

<div class="amazonLink">
    <a href="#">
        <div class="amazonLink__text">Buy Now on Amazon</div>
        <img class="amazonLink__image" 
            src="http://cdn2.iconmonstr.com/wp-content/assets/preview/2016/240/iconmonstr-amazon-1.png" width="24px" height="24px">
    </a>
</div>

CSS:

.amazonLink {
  position: relative;
  margin-top: 10px;
}

.amazonLink__text {
  display: inline-block;
  line-height: 40px;
}

.amazonLink__image {
  display: inline-block;
  position: absolute;
  top: 8px;
  margin-left: 5px;
}

If you want to use new tags specific for footer and address this is my example:

<footer id="footer">

    <span><img src="Images/facebook.png" alt="some text" /></span>
        <span> <img src="Images/twitter.png" alt="some text"/></span>
                <span>
                    <address>
                        Address line 1
                        Address line 2
                    Address line 3
                    </address>    
            </span>
</footer>


#footer {display:inline;}
#footer address {display:inline }

The alt to images was added to help with disability and standards.

<p> tags are block-level elements. Use an inline element such as <span>:

<div class="footer content">
    <img src="Images/facebook.png" />
    <img src="Images/twitter.png">
    <span> 
        Address line 1
        Address line 2
        Address line 3
    </span>
</div>

Alternatively, if you're able to use CSS, you can define both elements as inline-block:

.footer.content > img,
.footer.content > p {
    display: inline-block;
}

EDIT: It might also be wise for semantics to use <address>, rather than <span>. For example:

<div class="footer content">
    <img src="Images/facebook.png" />
    <img src="Images/twitter.png">
    <address> 
        Address line 1
        Address line 2
        Address line 3
    </address>
</div>

Since <address> is also a block-level element, you'll need to include the correct CSS as follows:

.footer.content > img,
.footer.content > address {
    display: inline-block;
}

Answer 6

The simplest way is to use <span> instead of <p>. <p> makes a new paragraph which is quit "independent".
