Solve Block Problem

I'm having trouble solving for two variables in Mathcad. I'm relatively inexperienced with this software and I'm not sure whether it's the software or my math but anyway i've included screen dumps to highlight the problem. I have tried the Given/Find block in two different ways. The first does not give me an answer as you might notice and the second just crashes every time I try to evaluate 'ans'

You need guess values for v1 and v2 prior to the "Given".

In the second example the last line would create a function (overwriting the built-in Find function), but only if the variable "ans" were defined, which it's not. This really crashes Mathcad though? It shouldn't do that (I'm too lazy to type it in to check myself).

For future reference, if you click on "Use Advanced Editor" at the top right of the edit window, you can upload a worksheet. That's usually a much better option that just screen captures.

See in attach.

Please attach your Mathcad worksheet.

Thank you all for your help!
