We have three equations
1) w+x = -4
2) x+y = 25
3) y+w = 15
From first equation,
W=-4-x
Substitute this into third equation
Y + W = 15
Y + (-4-x) = 15
Y = 19+x
Substitute this into second equation.
X + Y = 25
X + (19+x) = 25
X = 3
Therefore,
W = -4-(3) = -7
Y = 19+(3) = 22
The mean of x y w =
(3+22-7)/3 = 6
Quantity A = Quantity B (6)
