Given that Poppy the dog weighs \( p \) pounds and Yumi the cat weighs \( y \) pounds, and also that Poppy weighs 36 more pounds than Yumi, we can express this relationship mathematically.
The statement "Poppy weighs 36 more pounds than Yumi" can be formulated into the equation:
\[
p = y + 36
\]
This equation indicates that the weight of Poppy (\( p \)) is equal to the weight of Yumi (\( y \)) plus 36 pounds.
