Failure in initial objective function evaluation. FSOLVE cannot continue. Please help:(

I have a system of 5 equations to solve which are originally in symbolic form
eqnA = m_s - ((A_sy*P_e)/sqrt(T_e))*sqrt(gamma/R)*M_sy*((1 + ((gamma-1)/2)*M_sy^2)^(-(gamma+1)/(2*(gamma-1))))*eta_s == 0;
eqnB = m_p - ((A_py*P_g)/sqrt(T_g))*sqrt(gamma/R)*M_py*((1 + ((gamma-1)/2)*M_py^2)^(-(gamma+1)/(2*(gamma-1))))*eta_s - m_p == 0;
eqnC = A_py + A_sy - A_3 == 0;
eqnD = P_g/P_c - (1 + (gamma-1)/2*M_py^2)^(gamma/(gamma-1)) == 0;
eqnE = P_e/P_c - (1 + (gamma-1)/2*M_sy^2)^(gamma/(gamma-1))== 0;
I also have known values
val_m_p = 0.3745, val_m_s = 0.1175, val_T_g = 298.0124, val_T_e = 298.0001, val_A_3 = 1.767*10^-4, val_P_e = 4.0000e+06, val_P_g = 5.1e+06
I substituted these values into the equations above, converted the equations into a function handle and proceeded to solve for the remaining 5 unknown variables
%flow expansion
eqnAx = subs(eqnA, {P_e, T_e, m_s}, {val_P_e, val_T_e, val_m_s})
eqnBx = subs(eqnB, {P_g, T_g, m_p}, {val_P_g, val_T_g, val_m_p})
eqnCx = subs(eqnC, A_3, val_A_3)
eqnDx = subs(eqnD, P_g, val_P_g)
eqnEx = subs(eqnE, P_e, val_P_e)
g = matlabFunction([eqnAx; eqnBx; eqnCx; eqnDx; eqnEx])
options = optimset('Display','off');
x = fsolve(g, [0 0 0 0 0], options)
With g being
g =
function_handle with value:

However, I had error message
Not enough input arguments.

Caused by:
Failure in initial objective function evaluation. FSOLVE cannot continue.
I'm not too sure where it went wrong since the number of initialization parameters is the same as the number of unknowns. Please help:(

The error is that fsolve expects just one input argument, and you have many (I count 5 arguments, A_py,A_sy,M_py,M_sy,P_c) :
g =
function_handle with value:
@(A_py,A_sy,M_py,M_sy,P_c)[sqrt(7.0).*7.576938695805846e+1.*2.965820800757861e+6.*5.119801572077356e+7.*A_sy.*M_sy.*1.0./(M_sy.^2./5.0+1.0).^3.*(-4.518723221790994e-13)+1.174896374819055e-1==0.0;sqrt(7.0).*7.576938695805846e+1.*2.965820800757861e+6.*5.119907258219913e+7.*A_py.*M_py.*1.0./(M_py.^2./5.0+1.0).^3.*(-5.761966781546089e-13)==0.0;A_py+A_sy-1.767e-4==0.0;5.100744432356854e+6./P_c-(M_py.^2./5.0+1.0).^(7.0./2.0)==0.0;4.000005838383844e+6./P_c-(M_sy.^2./5.0+1.0).^(7.0./2.0)==0.0]
To fix this issue, use the vars argument in matlabFunction:
g = matlabFunction([eqnAx; eqnBx; eqnCx; eqnDx; eqnEx],'vars',{A_py,A_sy,M_py,M_sy,P_c})
For another example using matlabFunction for optimization, see Calculate Gradients and Hessians Using Symbolic Math Toolbox™.

remove the == 0 in defining eqn variables. If they must be expressed as equations then take lhs(X)-rhs(X) where X is your vector of equations.
