• Internal calculations are performed using a 15-digit mantissa, but results are displayed using
a 10-digit mantissa and a 2-digit exponent.
• Simultaneous linear equations are solved by inverting the matrix containing the coefficients
of the equations. For example, the following shows the solution ( x
, y , z ) of a simultaneous
linear equation with three unknowns.
Because of this, precision is reduced as the value of the determinant approaches zero. Also,
simultaneous equations with three or more unknowns may take a very long time to solve.
• The message “No Solution” appears if there is no solution. The message “Ma ERROR”
appears if a solution could not be found.
• The message “Infinitely Many Solutions” appears along with the formula if there are an
infinite number of solutions.
• After calculation is complete, you can press 1(REPEAT), change coefficient values, and
then re-calculate.
