Using the Action Menu
u
eliminate
Function: Solves one equation with respect to a variable, and then replaces the same
variable in another expression with the obtained result.
Syntax: eliminate (Eq/Ineq/List-1, variable, Eq-2 [
)
]
• Ineq (inequality) includes the “
≠
” (not equal to) relational operator.
Example: To transform
y
= 2
x
+ 3 to
x
=, and substitute the result into 2
x
+ 3
y
= 5

Function: Divides an absolute value expression into formulas without absolute value.
Syntax: absExpand (Eq/Ineq [
)
]
• Ineq (inequality) includes the “
≠
” (not equal to) relational operator.
Example: To remove the absolute value from
2
x
– 3
= 9

Function: Combines two equations or inequalities into a single expression.
Syntax: andConnect (Eq/Ineq-1, Eq/Ineq-2 [
)
]
• Ineq (inequality) includes the “
≠
” (not equal to) relational operator.
Example: To rewrite
x
> –1 and
x
< 3 into a single inequality
