Two keys can be used to enter negative exponents on the TI-30Xa scientific
calculator; the [y^x] key or the [EE] key. The [y^x] key is used for
all exponents while the [EE] key is used for scientific notation only. The
examples below will demonstrate how to use both keys:
1) Entering
7^-2.
• Press [7] [y^x] [2] [+/-] [=]. • The calculator will display:
0.20408163.
2) 1*10^-3.
• Press [1] [EE] [3] [+/-] [=]. • The calculator will
display: 0.001
You can put it in scientific notation by hitting 2nd and 5. It will put your answers in scientific notation and not round that particular answer you have.
Press 2nd [SCI] to switch the calculator to display all results in scientific notation. The results are the same whether you do it in scientific notation or not, it's just how the number is displayed.
Hi, The number displayed is 3.006 x10^12 or 3 006 000 000 000. It requires 13 digits to dsiplay but the calculator does not have that may places, so it reverts to scientific notation even if the mode is et to 'standard'. If numbers are too small or too large the calculator uses scientific notation regardless of the display format the calculator is configured for.
1. To convert a number to scientific equation, use [2nd][Sci]
Exemples 12345 [=] screen shows 12345 Then [2nd][Sci] coverts it to 1.2345 ^04 to the power 4.
2. To enter directly a number in scientific notation (e.g. -1.2345 X10^(-65) a very small number) you use the [EE] key 1.2345[+ /-][EE][+/-]65 shows as -1.2345 -65
1.6X10^(-19) 1.6[EE][+/-]19 shows as 1.6 -19
