Title: What is the "sequence pattern" tool of the ti-84?
Post by: krzysiek on November 03, 2009, 12:32:01 pm
Hello guys,

Going over some exams and in the solutions they say to use the calculator sequence facility or something like that. It is mainly for geometric / arithmetic sequences, but I can't find out where it is etc!

Look at an example in the 2009 exam report for Question 3c in the core.

Use the regression equation given in the question to plot two points. Make sure htese are not too close together and then join them with a ruled line.
