In your oppinion, what is the best app avalible for solving equations that are like: F(9)=X^4+5X-2 I really could use something like this, especially for exponents and roots. |

then you should [b]really[/b] learn your math. If you have the "x" in f(x) then you just plug it in and that's your "f" which is also your "y".
In this case...
F(9)= X^4+5X-2 F(9)= (9)^4 + 5(9) - 2 F(9)= 6604
I'm guessing you meant an equation where your not given one of the variables, in which case your example fails.
PS @Zachary I would consider calc programs a save, learning is the given. |
