A produce company sells crates filled with a mixture of apples and oranges during the holiday season to grocery stores. Each crate contains a total of 72 pieces of fruit. Suppose that a crate has 8 more apples than oranges.
Which system of linear equations can be used to determine the number of pieces of each kind of fruit in the crate?
A)a + o = 72 o = a + 8
B)a + o = 72 a = o + 8
C)8a + o = 72 a + o = 8
D)a + 8o = 72 a + o = 8
