Answer 2

VR is congruent to ST
VT is congruent to RS

Answer 3

I created the equations, but none of the letters cancel out, so I don't know how to solve that...

Answer 4

-x+4=y
4x-y=1 not -x-y=1

Answer 5

know how to solve for x and y there?

Answer 6

well, I tried but none of the variables canceled out... so not really no...

Answer 7

since y=-x+4
and 4x-y=1
then 4x-(-x+4)=1

Answer 8

Once you solve x plug back into any of the 2 equations to find y.
Both the y are the same in the equations

Answer 9
