Assigned Thu Nov 4, due Thu Nov 11
Answer the following questions about the TI-84 calculator in full sentences in a single Microsoft Word file named hw8-LastName.doc (where LastName is replaced by
your last name):
[2 pts.] 1. Redo question 2 from HW5 with the TI-84. Explain what you did to find each answer.
[ 1 pt. ] 2. Use the TI-84 to solve #31 from the January 2019 Algebra 1 Regents.
[ 1 pt. ] 3a. Use the TI-84 to find f'(2) for f(x)=x3. Explain how to find your answer.
[ 1 pt. ] 3b. What is the point-slope form of the equation of the tangent line to f(x)=x3 at x = 2?
[ 1 pt. ] 3c. Use the TI-84 to find the intersection point of f(x) = x^3 and the line from #3b. Explain why this result makes sense mathematically.
[ 1 pt. ] 4. Use the TI-84 to find the definite integral of e-x2 on the interval [1,3]. Explain how you found your answer.
[3 pts.] 5. For the sequence an = 33-n:
a) Find the first 5 terms of the sequence on the TI-84 using 2nd->STAT->OPS->5: seq. Explain how to graph this sequence of 5 terms on the TI-84.
b) Find the first 5 partial sums for the series {an} on the TI-84 using 2nd->STAT->MATH->5: sum.
c) Graph these partial sums on the TI-84 & explain how you can use this graph to make a conjecture about whether the series may converge or not.
