Equation Calculations
From the Main Menu, enter the EQUA mode.
• {SIML} ... {linear equation with 2 to 6 unknowns}
• {POLY} ... {degree 2 to 6 equation}
• {SOLV} ... {solve calculation}
1. Simultaneous Linear Equations
You can solve simultaneous linear equations with two to six unknowns.
• Simultaneous Linear Equation with Two Unknowns:

1. From the Main Menu, enter the EQUA mode.
2. Select the SIML (Simultaneous) mode, and specify the number of unknowns (variables).
You can specify from 2 to 6 unknowns.
3. Sequentially input the coefficients.
• The cell that is currently selected for input is highlighted. Each time you input a coefficient,
the highlighting shifts in the sequence:
a
1
m
b
1
m
c
1
m …
a
n
m
b
n
m
c
n
m (
n
= 2 to 6)
• You can also input fractions and values assigned to variables as coefficients.
• You can cancel the value you are inputting for the current coefficient by pressing
) at
any time before you press
U to store the coefficient value. This returns to the coefficient
to what it was before you input anything. You can then input another value if you want.
• To change the value of a coefficient that you already stored by pressing
U, move the
cursor to the coefficient you want to edit. Next, input the value you want to change to.
• Pressing
(CLR) clears all coefficients to zero.
4. Solve the equations.
