Hi, I've solved a system of nonlinear equations by hand, but I'm not sure if my answer is correct. I would like to verify my results with maple's output. However, I am having some trouble using maple: Here's my code: > eq1:=2*(x*r) + 2*(y*s) + 2*(z*t)-(t^2) + (r^2)=0: > eq2:=3*(x*(r^2)) + 3*(y*(s^2)) + 3*(z*(t^2))-(t^3)+(r^3) =0: > eq3:=4*(x*(r^3)) + 4*(y*(s^3)) + 4*(z*(t^3))-(t^4)+(r^4)=0: > fsolve({eq1, eq2, eq3}); Error, (in fsolve) number of equations, 3, does not match number of variables, 6 where r, s, and t are coefficients/constants and x, y, and z are variables. I'm thinking that maple is interpreting r,s, and t to be variables. How can I let maple know this is not the case? I would greatly appreciate any advice/suggestions. Thanks,
