To-whom-it-may-con-cern-he-llo-and-bye.
The correct answer is D. To whom it may concern: Hello and bye.
Explanation:
In language, a syllable refers to the basic unit of sound in words that includes at least a vowel sound, although it often combines a vowel and a consonant sound. For example, the word "carrot" has two syllables "ca" and "rrot" and each of these has both a vowel and a consonant sound. Additionally, a line is said to be decasyllabic if it contains ten syllables, this occurs in "To whom it may concern: Hello and bye" as all the line has ten units of sound or syllables as shown here: "To/whom/it/may/con/cern/He/llo/and/bye" (slashes separate syllables).
