Question

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.
