"Operator Precedence" later in this chapter.)
Example: Entering an Equation.
Enter the equation r = 2 × c ×(t – a)+25
Displaying and Selecting Equations
The equation list contains two built-in equations, 2*2 lin. solve and 3*3 lin. Solve,
and the equations you've entered. You can display the equations and select one to
work with.
