Notice that the result includes a vector [ ] contained within a list { }. To remove
the list symbol, use μ. Finally, to decompose the vector, use function OBJ .
The result is:

These two examples constitute systems of linear equations that can be handled
equally well with function LINSOLVE (see Chapter 11). The following example
shows function SOLVE applied to a system of polynomial equations.
