Translate the problem situation to a system of equations. Do not attempt to solve.Alice's Restaurant has a total of 159 seats. The number of seats in the 
section is 57 more than twice the number of seats in the smoking section. How many seats are in each section? (Let x represent the number of seats in the non-smoking section and y represent the number of seats in the smoking section.)
A. x + y = 57, x = 2y + 159
B. x + y = 159, x = 2y - 57
C. x - y = 159, x = 57 - 2y
D. x + y = 159, x = 2y + 57
