'The baby was hungry because it had not had a bottle in over four hours, so Mom fed the baby and warmed the bottle.'

Explicación

## Step 1The problem asks us to combine the given sentences into a compound sentence. A compound sentence is a sentence that contains at least two independent clauses. These clauses are connected by a coordinating conjunction (for, and, nor, but, or, yet, so) or a semicolon.## Step 2The sentences given are:A) The baby was hungry.B) The baby had not had a bottle in over four hours.C) Mom fed the baby.D) Mom warmed the bottle.## Step 3We need to combine these sentences into a compound sentence. We can do this by identifying the logical relationships between the sentences and using appropriate conjunctions to connect them.## Step 4The sentences A and B can be combined using the conjunction 'because'. This is because sentence A is a result of sentence B. So, we can say "The baby was hungry because it had not had a bottle in over four hours."## Step 5The sentences C and D can be combined using the conjunction 'and'. This is because both sentences are actions performed by 'Mom'. So, we can say "Mom fed the baby and warmed the bottle."## Step 6Finally, we can combine the two parts from steps 4 and 5 using the conjunction 'o'. This is because the action in sentence C and D is a result of the situation in sentence A and B. So, we can say "The baby was hungry because it had not had a bottle in over four hours, so Mom fed the baby and warmed the bottle."
