Solving Systems of Equations Number of Solutions

There are 50 donkeys and chickens on a far.  There are a total of 174 legs.  Which system below can be used to figure out how many of each animal the farm has?

• d + c = 174
  4d + 2c = 50

• d + c = 50
  4d + 2c = 174

• d + c = 50
  2d + 4c = 174

• d + c = 174
  2d + 4c = 50
