The correct statement is:
A gallon of Moo Milk costs $5.12 What is the price, in dollars, of an 8 ounce glass of Moo Milk? There are 128 ounces in 1 gallon.
Solution:
Cost of 1 gallon of Moo Milk = $ 5.12
1 gallon = 128 ounces, so we can write:
Cost of 128 ounces of Moo Milk = $ 5.12
Cost of 1 ounce of Moo Milk = $ 5.12/128 = $ 0.04
Cost of 8 ounces of Moo Milk = $ 0.04 x 8 = $ 0.32
Thus, 8 ounces of Moo Milk will cost $ 0.32
In order to find this you need to assume that they are declared as X and as X + 2. This makes the formula for calculating it x (x+2)=483, and this, based on the formulas for calculation, equals
x^2+2x-83=0
From this we can see that a negative X is -23, which when +2 is added results in -21.
