I try to solve for y using the 2 simple equations x == 2*y , w==10 -- basically I expect y = x/2 since the 2nd equation is irrelevant, however it returns [] ? If I try to solve for both y and x, the result is also [], but if I try to solve for y and w, the result is as expected [[y == 1/2*x, w == 10]]
sage: solve([x == 2*y,w==10],y) [] sage: solve([x == 2*y,w==10],y,w) [[y == 1/2*x, w == 10]] sage: solve([x == 2*y,w==10],y,x) [] There must be a reason behind this because I believe mathematica does the same too. Is there a work around to achieve what I want ?
