My algebra II teacher has a TI-82 with a LCD overhead panel thing,
and he was showing the class how to do a problem with functions
(Y1,Y2,etc.). It looked to me like that would work about the same
way as the solver (only not the same interface) as the TI-82's
functions. Also, the TI-82 has a solve routine. This is also about
the same thing as the TI-85's solver only again without the
interface. The TI-82's solver will only solve equations that are
equal to zero so if you have 2x=10 then all you should have to do
would be solve(2x-10) or something like that (I haven't tried it).
So basically, the TI-82 can solve equations just as well as the
Ti-85, at least I think so anyways.
