First graph the equation you want to find the zero.
 |
 |
Graph this equation in an appropriate window. This a a
graph of the equation in the zoom decimal window. We know this is
the behavior of the function over the entire domain since
is always positive and therefore the function is always increasing. |
 |
| Next press 2nd CALC and access the command zero. |
 |
| This will immediately take you to the graph and ask for a
lower boundary for the zero. Since there is only one zero in this
equation the current lower boundary is acceptable. |
 |
| Press enter to accept this lower boundary. Then you
will be asked for the right boundary. Use the cursor keys to change
the location of this right boundary. |
 |
| Press enter and you will be asked for a guess. You can
move the cursor to the left if you would like or just press ENTER. |
 |
| When you press enter the calculator will calculate the zero
for you equation in the selected window. |
