Answer: The one that is a compound sentence is "I painted my bedroom beige, but my sister painted her room blue".
Explanation: A compound sentence is a sentence made up of two or more independent clauses. Unlike dependent clauses, independent clauses, which are joined by means of a coordinating conjunction, can stand alone as sentences because they express a full thought. <u>"I painted my bedroom beige, but my sister painted her room blue" is a compound sentence because it includes two independent clauses ("I painted my bedroom beige" and "My sister painted her room blue"). </u>They have been joined by means of the coordinating conjunction "but".
