Re: HOW TO DO FACTORING ON THE HP50G or HP35S

2010-04-06 by Jacobus Du Toit [HQP HQ Exxaro Technology

Hi Professorman

 

The 50G could seem to be difficult and it is if you do not use it often.

 

Here is how to do it.

 

Press right shift (that is orange button second from bottom on left) and then EQW (equation writer which is the third from right and 7th from the bottom key, also the ‘ and O key)

 

Type X then Yx  then 2, press upkey (part of the 4 scroll keys above the backspace key) to select the full equation and then say press + key and x follwed by – and 6.

 

You would have the following equation: X^2+x-6.

 

Use the up key again until the whole equation is selected and then press the factor softkey second from right at the top line.

 

Your result appear as (x+3).(x-2)

 

So easy.

 

Regards
