Answer:
x = 7 and 15
Step-by-step explanation:
Divide both sides by -4...
| x - 11 | = 4
because
| -4 | = 4 and
| 4 | = 4
x - 11 = -4 and x - 11 = 4
solve for x in both equations.
x = 7 and x = 15
Since the ratio of girls and boys must be the same in each team, and all the competitors must be involved, it means that each team's ratio of boys : girls must be equal to the total ratio of Boys : Girls = 36 :27= 4 / 3.
Now 4 / 3, the most simplified version of 36 / 27, happens by dividing the numerator & demoninator by 9 (the greatest number it can divide by). So the greatest number will be 9 teams, each of 4 Boys & 3 Girls
