You can put this solution on YOUR website!
x = bagel price (cents)
y = quart of milk price (cents)
---
8x + 2y = 1800
3x + y = 750
---
put the system of linear equations into standard form
---
8x + 2y = 1800
3x + y = 750
---
copy and paste the above standard form linear equations in to this solver:

solution:
x = bagel price (cents) = 150
y = quart of milk price (cents) = 300
---
answer:
(x + y)/100 = ?
(150 + 300)/100 = ?
450/100 = ?
450/100 = $4.50
