Defining the Dependent Variable The selected functions from the Y= list define the dependent variables. You can have as many dependent variables as there are functions in the current graphing mode (four for FUNC mode and six for PARAM mode). From the Y= Editor Enter the functions to define the dependent variables in the Y= editor. FUNC Mode PARAM Mode In PARAM mode, you must define both components of the parametric equation (Chapter 5). Only functions that are selected are displayed in the table. (When = is highlighted, the function is selected.) You can select and deselect functions from the Y= list, from the Home screen, or from a program. (Refer to page 4-8 for information on selecting and deselecting.) 6-4 Tables
