Best Answer

put the equation into y=

and then go to second function (trace/calc)

and go to zeros

and follow the instructions

repeat for other intercept

(select slightly to the left of the intercept, then to the right... then hit enter a couple of times... when it asks you to guess, don't bother...)

then it will tell you the intercept

which is what you are looking for when you solve a quad-equation

How do you solve a quadratic equation on a TI-84?

Press MATH. Then go down to the last option, which says "Solver...". Press Enter. If you do not see "eqn:0=" then press the up arrow until you do. Now type your quadratic equation in. It will automatically be set equal to zero. (Use the button to the left of ALPHA for a variable, or use a capital letter as your variable(s). Put the cursor over the value next to the variable you want to solve for. Then press ALPHA and then SOLVE (the ENTER key. Notice that SOLVE is written in green above the ENTER key.) You will get an answer. Type in other values next to the variable to solve for other possible answers. You will normally get the answer closest to the one that is next to the variable before you press solve.

How do you solve quadratic equations on a graphing calculator?

If you have a TI-89: Hit "F2", select "solve." Enter your equation, which may or may not be in the following form: Then fill in values for your variables (a, b, and c) and solve for x. Your syntax will be: solve(ax^2+bx+c=0,x) * Also, if you are interested, you can download a software package for your TI graphing calculator to help you improve your score on the SAT test at www.calc-tech.com . It's called the SAT Operating System (SAT_OS) and can be used during the actual test to reduce time on math problems and improve the accuracy of your calculations.
