MATLAB Need help in matlab is it possible to inverse a Matrix involve unknown?

AI Thread Summary
To find the transfer function from the given system equation, where the input-output relationship is defined as [x/y]=[A]^-1[B] with A being a 2x2 matrix dependent on the Laplace variable s, users can utilize MATLAB for matrix inversion. However, inverting the matrix A, which includes the variable s, requires the symbolic toolbox in MATLAB. Without this toolbox, users may find it challenging to compute the inverse directly. Alternatives like Maple, Mathematica, or Mathcad are suggested for handling such symbolic computations effectively.

I need to find the transfer function a system equation and it is in the form

[x/y]=[A]^-1

x is input, y is out

[A] is a 2x2 matrix in the form of

A=[1+s 2
3 4+s ]

s is the laplace tranform function

Is it possible to output the inverse of [A] in MATLAB even it involve s?

I know I can inverse a 2x2 matrix by hand but I can't inverse a 4x4 matrix.

Cheers.

As far as I know, not without the symbolic toolbox. Maple or Mathematica or Mathcad (or my old TI-89) can, however.
