How do I find the values of b and y?
[A][b = [3
y] 4]

 

[Dick]

You are going to format that better, aren't you?

 

[Ry122]

[A][b y]=[3 4]
y is below b
4 is below 3

 

[Dick]

And what is A?

That's a lot like asking: "What is Ax= 4?" without telling us what A is. The only possible answer is "x= 4/A" or "X= A^-14".

The only possible answer to your question is
\left[\begin{array}{c} b \\ y \end{array}\right]= A^{-1}\left[\begin{array}{c} 3 \\ 4\end{array}\right]
until we know what "A" is.

Of course, if the problem really was what you said, that may be the correct answer!
