Mrs. brown has 8 more boys than girls in her class and has a total of 26 students. Determine how many girls and boys are in the class. May I please get some help ASAP?

There are 9 girls in the class and 17 boys in the class

Step-by-step explanation:

Set up a system of equations where b is the number of boys and g is the number of girls

b + g = 26

b = g + 8

Solve by substitution by substituting g + 8 as b into the top equation

b + g = 26

(g + 8) + g = 26

2g + 8 = 26

2g = 18

g = 9

So, there are 9 girls in the class. There are 8 more boys than girls, so add 8 to this to find the number of boys:

9 + 8

= 17

So, there are 17 boys.

There are 9 girls in the class and 17 boys in the class.
