I hope this solution helps you Joshua.

Take note that some of this equations you can find common parameters. In this case, I multiplied Equation 2 by 2 to make it have the same number of squares as Equation 1.

From there I took Equation 1 - Equation 2 to eliminate the squares to be left with only triangles. Moving on, I solved for the value of one triangle first before solving for the value of one square. I used Equation 2 because it is easier.
