Any calculus students out thier familiar with the ti-89 calculator

[Irotate360]

if so, how do you find a derivative using the ti-89? our class cant figure out how and our teacher wont tell us casue hes gay.

 

[MADr.]

you press 'math' and scroll down to nDeriv,

oh wait,

you bought the more expensive and worthless 89, nevermind i have no idea and nether does anyone else.

 

[Irotate360]

^wow, good joke...school provides em buddy. i didnt buy shit. and nderiv doesnt work. poop

Manual.

 

[Mr.Dick]

its like your penis. If you give it some lovin it'll do what you want

 

[Irotate360]

teacher wont give them to us. gay ik.

 

[midwest_rep]

I would suggest you look it up on the internet. Here, I'll do it in like half a minute...

there ya go

 

[Melvs]

if you can't figure it out, you don't deserve to know.

 

[bueyan]

whats with Mr. Dick and talking about penis and stuff.... plz get this kid outa here

 

[Aseets]

Just go and graph the deriv with the fancy d(function,x)

 

[linemaverick16]

Wow, this is lame, you guys are taking about math on a skiing website.

 

[Mr.Dick]

not toatally true i was talking about a penis

 

[linemaverick16]

Thats true

 

[Irotate360]

shut up melvs...not all our as smart as you

 

[Salomonman]

press 2nd, then 8, but i would recommend just learning how to differetiate, so you can do calculus without your calculator, all the tests in my class have been non-calculator

 

[Irotate360]

yeah actually we just had the test on d/dx like 2 weeks ago so right now is pretty much useless info...but its good to know.

 

[spere]

-press "on"

-press F3 (calc)

-press "1" (d( differentiate))

-type in: function

comma

variable

close parenthesis

-press enter

 

[Aseets]

Yeah, on a skiing website... in the non-ski gabber forum.

 

[GhostfaceKillah]

i can do derivatives like its a bodily function.. god i hate calculus

 

[KEVTRON]

i can draw pictures on my ti-83 plus

 

[sherpasrock]

hahah i loved my 89. granted i used it for algebra 1, 2 and trig.

 

[Treestman]

my calculus teacher wont even let us use calculators!

 

[Treestman]

and i had to buy my ti 83 plus

 

[squeakywaffle]

Find the 'd'. It should be a 2nd function of one of your keys, but I'm not sure about that. Then, do d(function, x) where x is the independent variable of your choice.

 

[thecoyote]

Calculators in Calculus? In my Calc courses at UBC thats unheard of...I remember back in High School I had a Ti-83 Plus!

 

[JazzyJ]

ti-84+ is new in our school and theres a tetris tournament that is constantly going

 

[Capurnicus]

If you want the specific value at a point, graph the function, then hit draw and tangent line then get the slope.
