I'll be glad to check your answers for the other sentence.
In the sentence "I love my new basketball," the subject is "I" and the predicate is "love my new basketball."
To identify the subject, ask yourself "Who or what is doing the action?" In this case, the pronoun "I" is the one doing the action - loving the basketball.
The predicate is the part of the sentence that contains the verb and provides information about the subject. In this case, the verb is "love" and it is followed by the direct object "my new basketball," which is what is being loved.
Now let's move on to the second sentence: "Amy and her coach worked out a plan."
The compound subject in this sentence is "Amy and her coach." A compound subject is when two or more subjects share the same verb and form a single subject. In this case, both Amy and her coach are working together, so they are considered a compound subject.
The compound predicate in this sentence is "worked out a plan." A compound predicate is when two or more verbs share the same subject and form a single predicate. In this case, the verbs "worked out" and "a plan" both describe the action being done by Amy and her coach.
To identify the compound subject and predicate, look for multiple subjects or verbs connected by coordinating conjunctions like "and" or "or." In this sentence, "and" connects the subjects "Amy" and "her coach," forming a compound subject.
