Hi,how can i solve this system in Mupad and get only the positive real solutions.
x + y + z = 50
5x + y + 0.1z = 50
Thank You :)

Hi,
You have 3 degrees of freedom and 2 eqations, so there is NO unique solution.
So doing some basic math gives:
z free to choose and
x = 0.225*z
y = 50 - 1.225*z
So when you choose z to be 40 you get x = 9 and y = 1.

b=[50 50]';
sol=pinv(a)*b; %Pseudo inverse
