Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

Answer: The answer to your question is D.

Step-by-step explanation:

Part 1)

David = x

Sarah = 1/2x

Lily= 2/3x

David + Sarah + Lily+ the 4 left over= 30

x + 1/2x + 2/3x +4= 30 equation

Part 2)

number of solutions

x + 3/6x + 4/6x + 4= 30

13/6x= 26

x= 12 He gave David 12, thus there is one equation

Check:

12 + 1/2(12) + 2/3(12) + 4=

12 + 6 + 8 + 4= 30

Good luck, hope this helps.
