[casio fx-350ES] How to input an equation with 1 variable in a calculator

Click For Summary

Discussion Overview

The discussion centers around how to input an equation with one variable into the Casio fx-350ES calculator, specifically focusing on the ability to calculate results for a range of non-sequential values of the variable.

Discussion Character

  • Technical explanation
  • Homework-related

Main Points Raised

  • One participant seeks assistance in inputting the equation (t/5)^1.514 into the calculator for various values of t, specifically wanting to avoid repetitive typing for each value.
  • Another participant expresses frustration at not receiving help and reiterates the need for assistance.
  • A different participant suggests that the table function in the calculator allows for inputting a range of values but notes that it requires a specific step, which does not meet the original request for random values.
  • One participant attempts to clarify the definition of an equation and provides a link to the Casio User's Guide, indicating that it includes instructions for generating a number table from a function.

Areas of Agreement / Disagreement

Participants do not appear to reach a consensus on how to input random values for the variable t. There are differing views on the capabilities of the calculator's functions, particularly regarding the table function and its limitations.

Contextual Notes

The discussion highlights limitations in the calculator's functionality regarding the input of non-sequential values and the definition of an equation, which may affect the clarity of the participants' requests and responses.

Hello everyone,

I was just going through the manual of my casio fx-350ES calculator to find out how i can input an equation with one variable. let's say the equation below:

(t/5)^1.514

t being the variable

Then i would like to input a range of values for my variable, t so that i can calculate and get all the answers in one go so i don't have to type the equation each time i want to use it with a different value for t.

lets say the values for t are 1,2,3,4,5

Can anyone help me?

anyone? i know that is possible could you please help me?
 
From the manual the only way to do what i am looking for is to use the table function where you need to input a the range of your values with a given step however this is not what i am looking for. I would like to input values for t that are not necessary in order or with a given step between a maximum and minimum. I would like to input random values such as 1, 20, 50, 32 and then calculate the result using a given equation for these random values

This is not an equation. A clue that what you're looking at is an equation is the presence of an equals sign, =.

Here's a link to the Casio User's Guide - http://support.casio.com/pdf/004/fx-82ES_83ES.etc_Eng.pdf.

It covers several Casio models, including your FX - 350ES.
