Python can compute results of equations, but it won't, natively, reformulate equations. Linear algebra tends to turn into matrix manipulation, as I recall... Again, not a native feature.
But all easily available with well-established open source packages. Just because it's not in the standard library doesn't mean that Python isn't a suitable language for doing this stuff.
