To illustrate. consider the interpretative order of the following example. Example: 4+ 52 x 7+ 3x .5""'' 3 2413203 Enter Press 5 F1.1 EXA 7 3 .5 Lz±.1 60 Display Comments 4. (4 ) is stored 25. (9)single-vanable function [ill] evaluated immediately 0.16 (4 + 5') evaluated because x is same prionty as +. 1.12 x higher priority than + so (4 + x 7) evaluated. + stored 3. (3x ) stored. 0.5 .5 y stored 0.5 Cos 60' evaluated immediately. 3 2413203 Completes all operations: .5"'"°. evaluated. then 3 x .5""O next. then this is added to 1.12. Thus, by entering the expression Just as it is written. the calculator correctly interprets it. The important thing to remember here is that operations are enacted strictly according to their relative priority as stated in the rules. The calculator remembers all stored operations and recalls oach and its associated number for execution at exactly the correct time and place. Once familiar with the order of these operations. you will find most problems are extremely easy to solve because of the straightforward manner in which they can be entered into the calculator. When parentheses are required to properly write an equation. parentheses are also available on the calculator. In the expressions at the top of page 18, the parentheses entered. as shown, will result in the answers shown. 19
