Answer:

  Dylan, 61; Ricardo, 57; Trevor, 122; Michael, 308.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let d represent the number of points that Dylan scored. Ricardo scored d-4; Trevor scored 2d; Michael scored 5d+3. Then the total of scores is ...

  total = Dylan + Ricardo + Trevor + Michael

  548 = d + (d-4) + (2d) + (5d+3)

  549 = 9d

  61 = d

Dylan scored 61 points.

Ricardo scored 57 points.   = 61 -4

Trevor scored 122 points.   = 2(61)

Michael scored 308 points.   = 5(61) +3
