USA FCC Information Concerning Radio Frequency Interference
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation.

2. Press the cursor navigation keys (} | ~ ) to move the cursor to the desired location. Press the cursor navigation keys (} | ~ ) to move the cursor to the second location. The current value of the first parameter (m) is highlighted in the symbolic expression.
Modify parameter values
Press the cursor navigation keys ( | ~ ) to move from the first parameter (m) or (b) the second parameter. When you edit the value of the selected parameter, the edit can include insert, delete, type over, or mathematical expression.
The screen dynamically displays the revised parameter value. Press to complete the modification of the selected parameter, save the value, and refresh the displayed graph. The system displays the revised parameter value in the symbolic expression Y=mX+B, and refreshes the graph with the updated Manual-Fit Line.

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. This takes you to the Graph screen and then pastes the ManualFit equation in the specified Y-Var. In this example, Y4.
Statistical Variables
The statistical variables are calculated and stored as indicated below. To access these variables for use in expressions, press , and select 5:Statistics. If you edit a list or change the type of analysis, all statistical variables are cleared.

Statistical Analysis in a Program
Entering Stat Data You can enter statistical data, calculate statistical results, and fit models to data from a program. You can enter statistical data into lists directly within the program (Chapter 11).
Statistical Calculations To perform a statistical calculation from a program, follow these steps. On a blank line in the program editor, select the type of calculation from the STAT CALC menu. Enter a comma and then the name of a Y= variable, if you want to store the regression equation to a Y= variable.

Statistical Plotting
Steps for Plotting Statistical Data in Lists You can plot statistical data that is stored in lists. The six types of plots available are scatter plot, xyLine, histogram, modified box plot, regular box plot, and normal probability plot. Display and explore the graph.
Chapter 12: Statistics
318
Scatter
Scatter (")plots plot the data points from Xlist and Ylist as coordinate pairs, showing each point as a box ( > ), cross ( + ), or dot ( ). You can use the same list for Xlist and Ylist.
xyLine
xyLine ()is a scatter plot in which the data points are plotted and connected in order of appearance in Xlist and Ylist. You may want to use SortA( or SortD( to sort the lists
before you plot them.

319
Histogram
Histogram () plots one-variable data. The Xscl window variable value determines the width of each bar, beginning at Xmin. [. . . ] 130, 143 dy/dx operation on a graph 130, 143, 151
