The message is based on the value of ihe equation—the difference
between the left and right sides of an equation, or the value returned
by an expression or program.
If a root is found, the SOLVE application returns a message describing
the root:
Zero The SOLVE application found a point where the
value of the equation is 0 within the calculator’s
12-digit precision.
Siyn Reversal The SOIVE application found two points where
the value of the equation has opposite signs, but
it cannot find a point in between where the value
is 0. This may be because:
■ The two points are neighbors (they differ by 1
in the 12th digit).
■ The equation is not real-valued between the
18 two points. The SOLVE application returns
the point where the value is closer to 0. If
the value of the equation is a continuous real
function, this point is the SOLVE application’s
best approximation of an actual root.
remjn One of the following occurred:
m The SOLVE application found a point where
the value of the equation approximates a local
minimum (for positive values) or maximum (for
negative values). The point may or may not
represent a root.
■ The SOLVE application stopped searching at
±9.9999999999915499, the largest or smallest
numbers in the calculator’s range of numbers.
To obtain more information about the solution:
■ Do any or all of the following:
n Move the highlight to the EQ field and press ExpR= (ENTER). For
an expression or program, the closer the result (labeled E::-ipr:) is
to 0, or for an equation, the closer the two results (labeled Lett s
and Right s) are to each other, the more likely it is that the
SOLVE application found a root. You must use judgement in
considering the results.
