3. Statistics
Get into STAT mode by pressing Mode, and then entering 3. Once in STAT mode, follow the calculator instructions below. To enter one set of numbers, press 1. This is when you have one set of numbers that you are working with to find the standard deviation, average, etc. Prepared By Test Masters Educational Services
Enter each number. Press = after each number. After entering the numbers, press the key AC. The numbers will be stored. Press Shift and then 1 to get into the Stat menu. Press 5 for standard deviation and average. You can then select the option you would like to solve for. For instance, press 2 for average and then =. n = population standard deviation and n 1 = sample standard deviation For Variance, remember to square the standard deviation.
4. Linear Regression
Get into STAT mode by pressing Mode, and then entering 3. Once in STAT mode, follow the calculator instructions below. To enter data points for (x, y), press 2 (A+Bx). Enter all x coordinates and y coordinates. Make sure that you are in the correct column and line. Press = after entering each number. After entering the numbers, press the key AC. Press Shift and then 1 to get into the Stat menu. Press 7 for linear regression. You can then select the option you would like to solve for. a = y-intercept, b = slope, r = correlation coefficient After entering the selection (for instance, 2 for b), press =. Remember to press = after selecting the option.
To view your data or change it, press Shift, 1, and then 2 (Data).
When entering the angle, make sure that you are in the correct mode, whether it be Radians or Degrees. To switch between the modes, press Shift, and then Mode. You will be given the options.
6. Base Conversion
Get into BASE mode by pressing Mode, and then entering 4. Once in BASE mode, you will see one on the display: Oct, Dec, Hex, Bin You can get into any of the four bases by pressing the buttons below. Notice how the display changes accordingly.
hex = hexadecimal (x key) dec = decimal (x2 key) oct = octal (ln key) bin = binary (log key)
Steps for base conversion: 1. Get into the base mode, and then go to the base you would like to start with (Oct, Bin, Dec, Hex). 2. Enter the number. 3. Press =. Always remember to press = to set this number into the base. 4. Press the base key you would like to convert the number to (^, ln, log). 5. If you need to enter a letter for Hexadecimal, you do not need to press Alpha. Just enter the key associated with that letter. 6. Press Mode, 1 to get out of the base mode.
7. Permutations and Combinations Example: Combinations of People (Order does not matter): A company employing 14 women and 10men is forming a six-person safety committee. How many different combinations of people are possible? 24 nCr 6 = Note: nCr is above the division key. ANSWER: 134, 596 Permutations of People (Order Matters):

8. Integration Solve
2 x2 x
Answer: 4.5
To enter the function: 2 Alpha X which is the ")" key x 2 Alpha X - which is the ")" key =
Try various functions that also include sin, cos, e, ln, etc to make sure you know how to enter each one.
9. Vectors Press Mode, 8, and AC (red key). You will then see VCT on the top of your display. Now you are in the vector mode and can start performing vector calculations. To enter a vector: Press Shift, 5, and then 1 (Dim) or 2(Data). 2(Data) lets you also view or change vectors that you have already entered. 1(Dim) lets you reenter vectors. If you have already entered a vector and you select 1(Dim), it takes you through the process of reentering it. So it will erase the previous one. Select the vector you would like to enter. You can enter up to 3 vectors. For instance, press 1 to enter Vector A. Select the dimensions of the vector. Enter each cofactor for i, j, and k. Press = after entering each one. After enter it, press AC (the red key). It is stored as a vector. To see the values for a vector already entered: Press Shift, 5, and then 2 (Data). Select the vector you would like to view. After viewing it, press AC (the red key). To find dot product: Press Shift, 5, and then select the first vector. Press either 3 (for vector A), 4 (for vector B), or 5 (for vector C). Press Shift, 5,

and then 7 (Dot). Press Shift, 5, and then the second vector (either 3, 4, 5). Then press =. Press AC to run another vector calculation. To find cross product: Press Shift, 5, and then select the first vector. Press either 3 (for vector A), 4 (for vector B), or 5 (for vector C). Press the multiplication symbol. Press Shift, 5, and then the second vector (either 3, 4, 5). Then press =. Press AC to run another vector calculation. To find magnitude of a vector: Press Shift, Abs (the hyp key), and then select the vector by pressing Shift, 5, and the vector (either 3, 4, 5). Press =. The magnitude will be displayed. Press AC (the red key) to perform another vector calculation. To find the angle between two vectors: The formula to find angle is given by: = cos 1
A B . You can enter this directly to find the angle by A B
selecting each part. You will need to add the parenthesis in appropriate places when entering the formula.
10. Matrices Press Mode, 6, and AC (red key). You will then see MAT on the top of your display. Now you are in the matrix mode and can start performing calculations. To enter a matrix: Press Shift, 4, and then 1 (Dim) or 2(Data). 2(Data) lets you also view or change matrices that you have already entered. 1(Dim) lets you reenter the matrices. If you have already entered a matrix and you select 1(Dim), it takes you through the process of reentering it. It will erase the previous one. Select the matrix you would like to enter. You can enter up to 3 matrices. For instance, press 1 to enter matrix A. Select the size of the matrix. Press the down arrow for more options. After selecting the size of the matrix, enter each element and press = after each one. When finished entering the elements, press AC (the red key). The matrix is stored. To see the values for a matrix already entered: Press Shift, 4, and then 2 (Data). Select the matrix you would like to view. After viewing it, press AC (the red key).
To find the determinant: Press Shift, 4, and then 7. Then select the matrix by pressing Shift, 4, and then the matrix. Press 3 (for matrix A), 4 (for matrix B), or 5 (for matrix C). Then press =. The determinant will be displayed. Press AC to run another matrix calculation. To multiply matrics: Press Shift, 4, and then select the first matrix. Press 3 (for matrix A), 4 (for matrix B), or 5 (for matrix C). Then press the multiplication symbol. Press Shift, 4, and then the second matrix (either 3, 4, 5). Then press =. The product of the matrices will be displayed. Press AC to run another vector calculation. To find the transpose of a matrix: Press Shift, 4, and 8. Then select the matrix by pressing Shift, 4, and select the matrix (either 3, 4, 5). Press =. The transpose will be displayed. Press AC (the red key) to perform another matrix calculation. To find the inverse of a matrix: Press Shift, 4, and then select the matrix (either 3, 4, 5). Press the x-1 key. Press =. The inverse is displayed. Press AC (the red key) to perform another matrix calculation. 11. Normal Distribution Press Mode, 3 (STAT), and AC (red key). Press Shift, 1, and 7(Distr, 3(R()). Enter the Z score. This option (R()) is equivalent to the middle column on the normal distribution chart in your reference book. However, if you have a negative Z score, you must enter the ABSOLUTE VALUE of it to get the area to the left of it (if its on the left side of the chart). If you enter a negative Z-score, then it assumes you want the remaining part (as if you were going through the center to the other side of the normal distribution graph). 9. To Solve a Function Note the calculator gives you one solutions, even if there are multiple solutions. .5 = (1 + x)6 Answer: -0.109
To enter the function: .5 Alpha = which is the "CALC" key (1+ Alpha X - which is the ")" key ) x 6 To solve the function: SHIFT SOLVE which is the "CALC" key = (bottom right ) NOTE : This takes a 5-10 seconds to solve. ALWAYS press =. Otherwise, it does not actually solve it. Only one solutions is given. If the function has more than one solution, it will only display one.
