a geometry class has a total of 25 students. the number of males is 5 more than the number of females. how many males and how many females are in the class

10 females, 15 males

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of females in the class be x. As the number of males is 5 more than the number of females, which is x, the number of males would be shown as x+5.

The number of females plus the number of males equal 25, so we get this equation:

x + (x+5) = 25

x + x + 5 = 25

2x + 5 = 25

2x = 20

x = 10.

So, there are 10 females, and since there are 5 more males than females, there are 10 + 5 = 15 males.

yes the total will be same because in both of them the expression.is rearranged but their sign remains the same hence it hss just been shuffled
