I'm guessing this is a parallelogram or something, so VR=TS and RS=VT
therefore, y=x+11 and x+2=y-3x
y=x+11 , 2=y-4x
y=x+11 , y=4x+2
then use the process of elimination:
y=4x+2 then plug in: y=3+11
- y=x+11 y=14
0=3x-9 I think this is how you'd do it, tbh it's just an educated
3x=9 , x=3 guess. Btw, sorry if it looks weird
