Answer:
$3
Step-by-step explanation:
Let c represent the cost of a box of cereal and let m represent the cost of a jug of milk.
Create a system of equations:
2c + m = 8.5
3c + 2m = 14
Solve by elimination by multiplying the top equation by -2:
-4c - 2m = -17
3c + 2m = 14
Add them together and solve for c:
-c = -3
c = 3
So, a box of cereal costs $3
