Full Version: Solve For Particular Values
Sulfan
Hi experts,

I have 9860GII, is there any possibility to solve here expressions for concrete numbers ?

Example: I write X^4 + X/2 + sin(X) and want to instate value in X

if I instate pi, it will write 98,98988 or if I instate 3 it will show 82,64112

I wasnt succesfull to find it in the manual, so thanks for ideas or any help.

Thanks much for any related answer smile.gif

There are many ways to do this, but one I usually use in my day-to-day work is change to Math Input/output in the setup menu
Then just use the arrowkeys to change the input value to recalculate.


First of all, thanks for your idea, it really works smile.gif

But in my previous calculator, there was a "SOLVE" function, that asked for the unknowns values and then solved the whole expression without setting the unknowns before.

Isnt there a simpler method, how to solve it (i found the method of continuous instating quite slow) ?

There's several ways to do this, but here's one. Just write the formula as you normally would.



If you want to figure out which X would give the answer 89, you move the answer into the right side of the forumula (changing the sign) and solve for 0.

Tips: I first copied the formula using SHIFT.jpg + 8.jpg(Clip) + F1.jpg (Cpy-L), then SHIFT.jpg+9.jpg (Paste) then inserted the formula from OPTN.jpg + F4.jpg (Calc) + F1.jpg (Solve)




Your calclator has two solve functions, in this instance I used Solve which finds the first answer, but you also have on the GII a SolveN function which tries to find several answers. The screenshots are from the fx-8690 emulator and is missing the usefull SolveN() function.

Yeah, it was missing 50% :-)

Hope the final answer helps.
