I would say D as it's the only different one

Answer:

Option: D is the answer.

           D. Losing 2 games.

Step-by-step explanation:

Compound event--

Compound event is a event in which there is more than one possible outcomes.

A)

              Winning 4 games.

In this situation there is only one outcomes i.e. winning.

Since all the games are won.

Hence, it does not represent a compound event.

B)

                        Losing 0 game.

This is again not a compound event since there is just one outcome that is winning of all the games.

Hence, it is not a compound event.

C)

                    Winning 0 game.

This is not a compound event since there is no outcome other than losing a game.

Hence, option: C is incorrect.

D)

                     Losing 2 games.

This is a compound event since there are more than one outcome i.e. there are 2 outcomes one is losing of the game and the other is winning of the game.

             Hence, option: D is the correct answer.
