    Explanation

    since "Brian and Cubby" form a plural noun and require a plural verb. So, now that we know how to interpret the question, our equations are: A + B = P B = A + 10 C = A + P/4 We want to solve for C, so let's get rid of A and B by getting A in terms of P and then subbing into the Cubby equation: A + 10 = B A + A + 10 = P 2A = P - 10 A = P/2 - 5 C = P/2 - 5 + P/4 C = (2P/4) + P/4 - 5 C = (2P + P)/4 - 5 C = 3P/4 - 5
