Defining multiple functions

I have a matrix with 4 elements that I want to turn into functions without explicitely defininig all the functions "by hand":



matrix={{(6. u2 - 3 v2 + 0.3 u2 x11 + 0.1 v2 x11)/(
3 u2 + 1. v2), (-15. + 1.5 u2 x12 + 0.5 v2 x12)/(-3. u2 - v2)}, {(
5. u2 v2 + 3.6 u2 x21 + 1.2 v2 x21)/(
3 u2 + 1. v2), (-9. u2 + 2 v2 - 1.8 u2 x22 - 0.6 v2 x22)/(
3 u2 + 1. v2)}}


in other words, in order to define a function for each element I have to manually specify the functions:



eq1[u1_,u2_, v1_,v2_, x11_,x12_,x21_,x22_] := matrix[[1,1]];
eq2[u1_,u2_, v1_,v2_, x11_,x12_,x21_,x22_] := matrix[[1,2]];
eq3[u1_,u2_, v1_,v2_, x11_,x12_,x21_,x22_] := matrix[[2,1]];
eq4[u1_,u2_, v1_,v2_, x11_,x12_,x21_,x22_] := matrix[[2,2]];


(Although the arguments do not all appear in the RHS, they might in different scenarios, so I chose to specify all arguments).



I tried:



Table[eq[i, j][u1_,u2_, v1_,v2_, x11_,x12_,x21_,x22_] := matrix[[i, j]], {i, 2}, {j, 2}]


but that does not seem to work. Or at least I don't get how to access eq now:



eq[1, 1]


does not work. Any help appreciated.
