Answer:

A. Tossing 5 coins and getting 4 heads

Step-by-step explanation:

Compound events may be described as events whose occurence has more than one possible outcome, that is the number of possible events is more than one. From the options given above, Rolling 3 on a die, this event has only one possible outcome, which is rolling 3 ; tossing a coin and getting tails also has one obe possible outcome. Drawing 10 diamonds from a deck also focuses on one event which is drwinh diamonds. However, tossing 5 coins and getting 4 heads involves that the 5th toss will be tail. This has more than one event and thus a compound event.
