Choos the sentence that has a compound predicate.
1) Swimming and golfing are Jim's favorite sports.
2) Sue and I will listen.
3) Sandy washed and ironed her clothes.
4) We went home to eat and to study.
This one I think is #3
You are 100% correct! Good work
Thanks!!
To identify the sentence that has a compound predicate, we need to understand what a compound predicate is. A compound predicate is a sentence that has two or more actions or verbs that share the same subject.
In sentence 1, "Swimming and golfing" is a compound subject that contains two actions, but this sentence does not have a compound predicate.
In sentence 2, "Sue and I" is the subject, and "will listen" is the predicate. While there are two subjects, there is only one action, so it does not have a compound predicate.
In sentence 3, "Sandy" is the subject, and "washed" and "ironed" are two actions connected with "and." Therefore, sentence 3 has a compound predicate.
In sentence 4, "We" is the subject, and "went" and "eat" as well as "study" are three actions connected with "to" and "and." Therefore, sentence 4 also has a compound predicate.
So, the correct answer is actually both sentence 3 and sentence 4.
