    Another tip... if you want to enter something in as a fraction (this is also helpful for entering division equations) you go alpha, y=, enter. It also gives the answer as a fraction

    • @OakspiritGames
      @OakspiritGames 6 лет назад +9

      press ALPHA, then Y=

    • @reubenwurster1627
      @reubenwurster1627 5 лет назад +6

      or just press MODE go over to "Answers:" and scroll over to FRAC-APPROX and press enter then press 2ND MODE and everything will automatically be a fraction

    Apparently nobody knows this about their TI-84s, but there's a bunch of quick-access menus you can get to super quickly by hitting alpha+(any of the top row/Fn keys). They cover everything from frac in the first one to abs(), summation, even integrals as well as a super easy matrix generator where you can input the number of rows and columns up to 6 I believe. They tend to be much faster than any other way I've seen to do them.
    If you went/go to a school where you had to reset your RAM, that's what the opening screen is telling you about after you reset it.
    It's been a while since I took any standardized tests- I'm an IB alum, but I took the SAT and ACT a few times and got reasonable scores. In my experience, it's much more effective to study for the content than to use a downloaded program. If you take the free practice exams that the ACT and SAT both post online, it's a pain but it makes it super easy to see where you're going wrong- Just make sure you're keeping an eye on time.

    Or, for two unknowns you can use Matrices, because all graphing calculators have that function. Basically if you have:
    2x-3y=4
    3x+5y= 10
    You can press 2nd and whatever button your matrix button is and scroll right to edit. As your A matrix, edit A as a 2x2 and put your matrix, the example would be:
    [2 -3]
    [3 5]
    Then you’re going to press 2nd quit and go back to edit; to edit another matrix and edit B to be a 2 by 1 for your 2nd matrix and the ex would be:
    [4]
    [10]
    Then you’re going press 2nd quit. Then you are going to press 2nd matrix this time, DONT scroll to edit, just press the A when u get on the screen... after that you’re going to have A on your screen and press your inverse key (x to the -1) then you’re going to press your matrix button and press b and it will multiply it for you and spit your answer. The answer will be in order as the variables are.
    The same would apply for a 3 equation 3 unknown problem. The size of your matrices will add a column and row. That’s another way for you guys.

    During the SAT, should your calculator be in radians or degree mode?

      AlfalfaTV Our teacher hasn't even explained what radian mode is. Should I be worried? Like will I need radian mode for sure on a question? Or should I be fine just using degree mode?

    You realize for the first tip if you write all of them in fractions it’ll come up as a fraction in the answers (don’t use the division for fractions)
