Hi
I'm a beginner with the use of matlab and octave... Can someone
please help me....How do i express the function y as a amtlab

y^2 - 2y = x + 1
Thankx

Matlab/Octave are computational applications. Assuming I got the
algebra correct,
y1 = 1 + sqrt(1 + 4*(1+x));
y2 = 1 - sqrt(1 + 4*(1+x));
y = union(y1,y2);
If you're looking for a program that will provide a symbolic solution
(i.e. start with y^2-2y=x+1 and provide an equation representing y),
take a look at Maxima.
