Given-Find: Undefined Variable

Given-Find: Undefined Variable

Hello, I am working on some Laplace Transform problems and the problem got messy quickly and I figured I would just use a given find to solve for A, B, C, and D(for the partial fraction). But I am unfortunately running into an issue that I have seen before but I cannot remember how I resolved it. The reoccuring issue is the last variable in the matrix will appear to be undefined when it is clearly defined beforehand. I want to make sure to write down how to properly use the given find so this issue will not occur again. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

1. Please attach your worksheet in zip archive to the message.

2. Mathcad forum: https://community.ptc.com/t5/PTC-Mathcad-Questions/bd-p/PTCMathcad

I am illiterate when its comes to zipping files, but I think I may have done it correctly.

You can use the "Minerr" function instead of "Find" (which tries to find an exact solution).

Okay but how is A=1.47, when underneath given I clearly defined
12A=30 with the Boolean equal sign

Thank you very much, like I said this was an annoying partial fraction problem I must have made a math error at some point or the solutions manual is incorrect. Which that isn't the first occasion, anyways thank you for help.

I pointed to this solution earlier.
