Entering and Evaluating Equations 
How You Can Use Equations 
You can use equations on the HP 33s in several ways: 
„
For specifying an equation to evaluate (this chapter). 
„
For specifying an equation to solve for unknown values (chapter 7). 
„
For specifying a function to integrate (chapter 8). 
Example:
Calculating with an Equation.
Suppose you frequently need to determine the volume of a straight section of pipe. 
The equation is 
V = .25 
π

where d is the inside diameter of the pipe, and l is its length. 
You could key in the calculation over and over; for example, .25

diameter pipe (78.5398 cubic inches). However, by storing the equation, you get 
the HP 33s to "remember" the relationship between diameter, length, and 
volume — so you can use it many times. 
Put the calculator in Equation mode and type in the equation using the following
