TI-84 Evo Guidebook

The classroom-proven TI-84 guidebook, now written for the TI-84 Evo.This book is for users of the TI-84 Evo graphing calculator. It focuses on the most relevant functions for high school and college. No previous experience is required: It starts off with the basics of the calculator, like the home screen with its apps, editing equations, and how to graph functions. Furthermore, it explains all the settings of the calculator and gives you recommendations about what you should choose to get the most out of it.The book continues to teach you how to analyze your functions (finding zeros, minimums, maximums, and intersections) and how to calculate integrals and derivatives. Additionally, it gives you all the information you need to solve equations and work with matrices and lists.The statistics chapter teaches you the difference between permutations and combinations, and shows you how to perform one- and two-variable statistical data analyses, regressions, and probability distributions, plus the hypothesis tests and confidence intervals you need for AP Statistics.The last chapter shows you what the preinstalled apps can do for you: solve polynomials and systems of equations, animate function transformations, graph inequalities and conic sections, calculate loans and savings, and even program in Python. You will also find out exactly what your calculator may and may not do on the SAT, ACT, and AP exams (including Test Mode), and what the most common error messages mean and how to fix them. And the back-of-book index lets you look anything up in seconds.Buy this book if:- you are a high school student;- you are in college;- you want to learn how to use your TI-84 Evo quickly and easily;- you don't want to read a 300+ page book about how to write programs on your calculator.Why is it so easy to understand the TI-84 Evo with this book?- Short and easy to understand explanations of each topic. I don't spend a whole page talking about how to use one key. I've kept it short and concise.- Images of the real calculator keys between the text. For instance, when I say "e;Press graph and use the arrow keys..."e;, the book shows the real buttons. This makes it super easy to follow the steps on your calculator.- Simple step-by-step keystroke sequences for most calculations. Look at one, and you instantly know how to do it. It's that simple!- Lots of screenshots to give you real examples: every single one taken on the TI-84 Evo.Important: This book is written for the TI-84 Evo only. If you have a TI-84 Plus CE, a TI-84 Plus CE Python, or an older model with a black-and-white display, this book is not for you. I have written separate books for those models, with exactly the right screenshots and keys. Most other books just use a similar calculator to make one book for all models; my books show you your calculator.About the AuthorMy name is Marco. In high school I was good at mathematics and often helped my classmates understand it, especially how to use their calculators. I know students don't need a 300-page book to understand a graphing calculator. So I kept this one short, simple, and free of confusing background information, with step-by-step keystroke sequences you can look up in seconds.
