Select y 5 to finish the Manual Fit function. The calculator stores the current mX+b
expression into Y1 and makes that function active for graphing. You can also select

and then press Í. This takes you to the Graph screen and then pastes the Manual-
Fit equation in the specified
Y-Var. In this example, Y4.
