To enter your guess(es):
1. If the HP-22S is displaying the equation, press [C].
2. Store a guess in the unknown variable. For example, if the un-
known is X, 2
X stores 2 as a guess.
3. If you want to use a second guess, key in the value. (If you don't
do this step, there is only one guess, since the variable and dis-
play contain the same number.)
4. Proceed with step 2 under "Instructions for Using
" on
page 77.
Example: Using Guesses. Part 1: How long does it take an object
with an initial velocity of 10 meters/second accelerating at 2
meters/second? to travel a distance of 1000 meters? (Use the library
equation X=S+VXT+5XAXT"2.)
