Answer 1

A compound predicate means that there are two or more verbs in there.

1. Sue and Sara ... played (nope, only one verb)

2. Mike ... thinks (nope, only one verb)

3. family ... enjoys (nope, only one verb)

4. I ... cleaned and painted (aha! two verbs)

Sentence 2 doesn't have a compound predicate.

A compound predicate has two verbs. Which of your sentence has two verbs and one subject?
