The keystrokes to start this process are the same on the two calculators, although
the keys have a different name. For the TI-85 we start with ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() |
![]() | We leave Figure 1 by pressing the ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() |
![]() | We leave Figure 2 by pressing the ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Now we can move to the next screen by
pressing the |
![]() | In Figure 4 we need to enter the coefficients and constants for the third
equation, in our standard form, namely 10, 1-14, 16, and 100. We use the
keys
![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() We have entered all of the values. We are ready to solve the system of linear equations. |
![]() | We request a solution by pressing the ![]()
We could press |

The main page for solving systems of linear equations on the TI-85 and TI-86.
The previous example page covers a Simple 2 equation 2 variable situation
but with parallel lines.
The next example page covers a Simple 3 equation 3 variable situation,
but with no solution since the planes do not intersect, but are not parallel.
