Nevermind, it's simple! a = {{1, 0}, {0, 1}} b = {{b1, 0}, {0, b4}} c = {{c1, c2}, {c3, c4}} Solve[{a x + b y == c, c.b == b.c}, {x, y}] "PSi" <psino at tee.gr> wrote in message news:... > > I want to solve the following equation with Mathematica 4.1: > a*x+b*y=c > where x, y are the unknown scalars, > a={{1,0},{0,1}}, > b={{b1,b2},{b3,b4}}, > c={{c1,c2},{c3,c4}}, > the matrices b, c commute, and the matrix b is not a scalar multiple of the unit > matrix a. > Could anybody help? > > > > > > >
