I assume that you meant RS and ST are segments of RT. If that is true then:
RS+ST=RT, using the values for these given...
8y+4+4y+8=36 combine like terms on left side
12y+12=36 subtract 12 from both sides
12y=24 divide both sides by 12
y=2

Answer:
y=2x-3
when two lines are parallel, they have the same slope.
in the formula y=mx+b, m=slope of the line
we know 2 will be the slope for the line passing through (4,5)
next plug in (4,5) into the formula with 2 as the slope
4=x 5=y
next 5=2(4)+b
and you end up with
y=2x-3 when you simplify
