Can MATLAB easily solve a system of polynomial equations?
Show older comments
Hey, I have a quick MATLAB question that might seem obvious, but I just can't find any documentation that can figure out my issue.
Let's say you have a system:
R = A x^2 + B x + C
S = 4A x^2 + 5B x + 2C
T = 5A x^2 + 8B x + 4C
Is there a way to solve for A, B,and C directly through MATLAB? Thanks.

You want to solve for A, B, and C. So assuming that the rest of variables are given, you find the solution by:
ABC = [x^2 x C; 4*x^2 5*B 2*C; 5*x^2 8*B 4*C]\[R; S; T];
A = ABC(1);
B = ABC(2);
C = ABC(3);
