Answer:

D)

Explanation:

Kevin starts with 0 poems but increases 3 each day

Let kevin = x

y = 3x

Anita has 4 poems to start with but increases 2 each day

Let anita = y

y = 2x + 4

As seen on this graph:

The point of intersection is (4,12)

The x axis being the number of days.

Thus the answer is D)
