This sentence is a compound sentence as it has two independent clauses joined by a comma.

Step-by-step explanation:

Simple sentences are made of one independent clause, that is to say, a sentence with a subject, a verb and a predicate.

Compound sentences are made of at least two clauses joined by a comma, colon or conjunction.

Complex sentences are made of an independent clause and at least one dependent clause.

Complex-compound sentences are made of at least two independent clauses and at least one independent clause.
