Re: Accessing coefficients on a TI-85
There is no way to copy them from the SIMULT or POLY applications, but if you
use the simult() and poly() functions, found in the CATALOG, they will return
the results in Ans, so you can press 2ND-ANS to use them, or store them to a
variable. For example, type poly {1,2,1} and it will return {-1,-1}. Type
simult([[5,6][7,8]],[-5,-6]) and it will return [2,-2.25].

Subject: Accessing coefficients on a TI-85
Sorry if this is a really daft question, but when you run SIMULT or POLY on
a TI-85 it gives the results as x1, x2, etc. How can I get at these
results for further, onward calculation? They don't seem to be there if I
type x1, x2 from the keyboard, and I hope you don't have to copy them out
on paper and re-enter them, do you?
Thanks for any help,
Dick
