All:

This should be simple but I am clearly missing some of the nuances - can you please help me see what I am doing wrong?  I would like to solve 2 eqns in 2 unknowns:

eq15 := Kzeff15 = (Kvr*Kz15)/(Kvr+Kz15);

eq33 := Kzeff33 = (Kvr*Kz33)/(Kvr+Kz33);

Kz33 := (3.3/1.5)*Kz15;

Kzeff15 := 150612;

Kzeff33 := 253629;

soln_z15 := fsolve ({eq15,eq33},{Kvr,Kz15});

 

 

The question is: fsolve seems to solve Kvr and Kz15 as symbolic assignments (?). I would like to use the values to obtain the final values, for example:

Kz24 := (2.4/1.5)*Kz15;

 

 

However, it apprears that (despite trying feval, soln_z15[2], etc.) I am stuck in symbolic mode. Suggestions/directions towards a tutorial for the mathematically-challenged?
