How do you input x=9 on the Ti 83 graph?

Any reason why you want to use it? Are you attempting to vizualize a vertical line test.

Just go to 2nd, draw, vertical... It should show up on the home screen, then just input x=9. Hope that helps.

I'm trying to graph functions to find the integral bounds and the area between curves. Now I see how you input it, ok thanks for the help.
 
There are two things I don't understand about this problem. First, when finding the nth root of a number, there should in theory be n solutions. However, the formula produces n+1 roots. Here is how. The first root is simply ##\left(r\right)^{\left(\frac{1}{n}\right)}##. Then you multiply this first root by n additional expressions given by the formula, as you go through k=0,1,...n-1. So you end up with n+1 roots, which cannot be correct. Let me illustrate what I mean. For this...
