In a later section of this module well look at decimal solutions. Here are some examples of a linear and quadratic equations. In the examples above, Maple returns one or more individual answers. Happily, Maple adjusts automatically to the type of problem involved. The same solve command will work on these problems.
Maple expresses an interval as a real range.
The same solve command can be used to solve equations which have several unknowns. However, if there are multiple unknowns, you need to specify which one you want Maple to solve for. You do this by including an additional parameter in the command. The additional term, separated by a comma, is the variable you are solving for. Solve each equation or formula for the indicated variable.
