At a college bookstore, Carla purchased a math textbook and a novel that cost a total of $54, not including tax. If the price of the math textbook, t, 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?

• t + n = 54

  t = 3n + 8

• t + n = 54

  n = 3t + 8

• t + n = 54

  t = 3n - 8

• t + n = 8

  t = 3n + 54
