@abbeykabir Let's start with what you do know. What do you know about Newton's method? Let's start with the single-variable case.

I ran your code exactly as it is above in Maple 17.01 and I got that II, the symbolic imaginary part, is identically 0.

@abbeykabir Did he say that the answers are numerically wrong? Or did he just want you to use another method? There are likely to be multiple solutions to the system. Do you have any information about acceptable ranges for the y's? or some method to test whether a solution is feasible?

I'll write up an example using Newton's method.

@puckie Yes, sorry, that statement is quite complicated. But note that it got significantly more complicated when you cut and pasted it. Learning that statement will take quite a bit of study. A place to start is ?LinearAlgebra,General,MVshortcut and ?$

Can you show an example or post a worksheet?

@puckie The problem is that you have V:= [1,2,3,4,5,6], but you should have V:=[4,5,6,7,8,9,10].

@puckie On American keyboards, the underscore or underline is the shifted version of the minus sign. Note that the name y__1 contains two of these. The accent grave is the leftmost key is second row, to the left of number 1. The accents are not necessary in the name y__1 (but it shouldn't make any difference if you do use them). They are necessary for names that contain strange characters, such as `<|>` and the empty name ``, which has no characters.

@puckie No, it works for me in the sense that I get the actual numbers in the Matrix and in the Spreadsheet. I've attached my executed worksheet: Table2.mw

What version of Maple are you using? I have

Maple 17.01 / 64-bit / Windows 8 / Standard GUI

@puckie When I execute your worksheet, it works perfectly for me. I didn't make any changes. Try Execute -> Worksheet from the Edit menu.
