Answer by  xocrisface (16)

Compound machines are machines that consist of two or more simple machines. They are able to do more difficult tasks than simple machines are capable of. Scissors, a bicycle, stapler, fridge, toilet, wheel barrow, bottle opener, pulleys, wedges, cork screw, lighers, garden hoe, cars, keyboard, microwave, and a television are some examples.

Compound machines are two simple machines working together. For example, a pair of scissors is a compound machine. It uses levers (the handle and rivet) and wedges (the cutting edges.) When a hand squeezes the handles together, the lever pivots at the folcrum, causing the wedges to come together and cut paper.
