total of 54, not including tax. if the price of the math textbook, m, is $8 more than 3
times the price of the novel, n, which system of linear equations could be used to
determine the price of each book?
a.
m - n = s
m = 3n - 54
c. m + n = 54
m = 3n + s
b. m = n = 8
m = 3n - 54
d. m + n = 54
m = 3n-s
