Why do I get an error when I try to use the solve function?

When I type the following command in matlab >> [x,y] = solve('x+2*y=4','2*x - y=3'),
I get the following error
Check for incorrect argument data type or missing argument in call to function 'solve'.
I was hoping someone could help me fix this. Thanks.

The quoted character array notationi may no longer be usable.
Try this isntead —
syms x y
[x,y] = solve(x+2*y == 4, 2*x - y == 3),
.

solve() requires the inputs to be Symbolic Math objects
syms x y
[x,y] = solve(x + 2*y == 4, 2*x - y == 3) % note the use of == as required to define an equation
