The coach and my brother is late for the match last week.
The coach and my brother are late for the match last week.
The coach and my brother was late for the match last week.

Sagot :

The coach and my brother were late... This is the plural form of the verb

Answer:

The correct sentence is | The coach and my brother were late for the match last week. |

Explanation:

In the first sentence "The coach and my brother is late for the match last week." the word (is) makes the sentence incorrect.

In the second sentence "The coach and my brother are late for the match last week." the word (are) makes the sentence incorrect because this is pas-tense (last week)

In the third sentence "The coach and my brother was late for the match last week." The word (was) makes the sentence incorrect, even though it is a word for something that already happened.. or (was) a thing, it doesn't fit correctly into the sentence.
