Meg is 6 years older than Victor. Meg's age is 2 years less than five times Victor's age. The equations below model the relationship between Meg's age (m) and Victor's age (v):

m = v + 6
m = 5v – 2

Which is a possible correct method to find Meg's and Victor's ages?

Solve m + 6 = 5m – 2 to find the value of m.
Write the points where the graphs of the equations intersect the x axis.
Solve v + 6 = 5v – 2 to find the value of v.
Write the points where the graphs of the equations intersect the y axis.

you would use the second way since meg is older than victor and not the other way around

Answer:

C. Solve v + 6 = 5v - 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Meg is 6 years older than Victor.

(VICTOR's age + 6 = MEG's age)

Meg's age is 2 years less than five times Victor's age.

(VICTOR's age * 5 - 2years = MEG's age)

(Victor is 2 years old and Meg is 8:

2 + 6 = 8

2(5) = 10 - 2 = 8

just in case you were curious)

Good luck!!
