MATLAB: How to solve a simultaneous equation of 2 variables.

x+3y=5;2x+4y=4. In general maths, we can be able to find the values of 'x' and 'y' from the above equations. How to find it in MATLAB?

If you have the Symbolic toolbox,

syms x y
solve(x + 3*y - 5, 2*x + 4*y - 4)

xy = [2 3; 5 2]\[12;3]

syms x y a b
eq1=a==x+y;
eq2=b==x-y;
[xsol,ysol]=solve([eq1 eq2],[x y])
sol.x
sol.y

or:

syms x y a b
eq1=a==x+y;
eq2=b==x-y;
[xsol,ysol]=solve([eq1 eq2],[x y])
