Before starting any type of algebraic work in the Main application, there are three useful actions to begin with. Starting in the Main application, the first action is to tap Settings, Basic Format, Default, Set.
The second is to tap Edit, Clear All Variables. This ensures that any numerical values assigned to variables such as x, y, etc are cleared.
The third action is to tap Edit, Clear All so that you have a clear workspace to ready to begin. This last step is optional, but will help you to exactly reproduce the screens seen in the movies in this series.

Solving an Equation There are two methods in which equations may be solved :
i. Interactively step by step in the main screen (as you would do with pencil and paper normally)
ii. Using the Solve command from the embedded screen menus. This task uses the first option.
Tap the Main screen icon
Solve the equation 7x 3 = 2x + 4 (Interactive step by step method) Enter in the equation then press EXE.
Then we could ask What do we want to do to both sides Add 3 to both sides! Enter + 3
Then press or tap EXE. We then obtain (after adding 3 to both sides)
34
Then subtract 2x from both sides. Enter - 2x (subtract key NOT the (-) key !)
Then press or tap EXE. We then obtain .
Then divide both sides by 5. Enter 5
Then press or tap EXE. We obtain our exact answer (being in Standard mode not Decimal).

Tap the Main screen icon Press Keyboard. Enter 3 4x > 9 Press or tap EXE.
NOTE: the greater than symbol > can be found in OPTN
Now we can subtract 3 from both sides. Enter - 3 Then press or tap EXE
We could then consider dividing both sides by -4. Enter (-) 4
This yields the correct solution x < 23 !!

Use to type the index 2, then either tap in the next position or press the right cursor key once, before continuing typing.
or Enter x2 + 6x + 5 = 0 Select the entire equation Tap Interactive, Equation/Inequality, solve Tap OK Two solutions are given: x = -5, x = -1
40
We can then edit the solve command to change the equation : Select the entire line with the solve command text .. Then drag the selected text to a new line . (dont press EXE)
Highlight the 5, type 9. Press or tap EXE This then yields only ONE solution x = -3.
In a similar manner, edit the solve command to solve x2 + 6x + 7 = 0 This then yields TWO exact solutions x = -3 2.
In a similar manner, edit the solve command to solve x2 + 6x + 12 = 0 This then yields no real solutions.
Alternatively, merely highlight the item(s) to be edited, type the replacement(s), then press or tap EXE. For example, solve x2 - 8x + 16 = 0 by highlighting +6, typing -8, and then highlighting 7, typing 16. Press or tap EXE This then yields only ONE solution x = 4.

Start with File, New. The 3 most common types of entries in spreadsheet cells are Text, Numbers and Formulas.
Text Examples: Rate, Sum and Title. Tap into cell A1, and use the keyboard abc tab to enter the word Rate. Notice that by default Classpad left-aligns text within a cell.
Numbers Examples: 0.1 and 12. Tap into cell A2, and use the keyboard mth tab to enter the number 0.1. Notice that by default Classpad right-aligns numbers within a cell.
88
Formulas that combine references to numbers or cells or both Examples: =34, = A1+A2 or =B2/100. Tap into cell A3 and type 34. Note that it is treated as a text entry. Now tap into cell A4 and type = 34 and see the result displayed as 12.
Now tap back into cell A4 and tap the zoom icon in the toolbar to see both the formula entered and the calculated value of the cell. Tap the zoom icon again to close the zoom window.
Still in cell A4, experiment with the bold tool and the cell alignment tool . Next select the whole column by tapping on the column A header . Use the same tools with all of the selected cells.

This example uses the spreadsheet application to create the arithmetic sequence 5, 8, 11, 14, From the Main Menu tap Spreadsheet. In spreadsheet tap File, New.
Tap into cell A1 and use the keyboard to enter 5 and then tap EXE. In cell A2 use the keyboard to tap = and then tap into cell A1. The formula bar at the bottom of your Classpad screen should be showing
at this stage. Now use the keyboard to tap +3 and then tap EXE.
Cell A2 now displays the value 8.
90
Tap into cell A2 and use the keyboard to take a copy of the cell contents.
Tap into Cell A3 and tap on Paste . Notice how the spreadsheet modifies the pasted formula to add 3 to the previous cell (A2) contents.
Now simply repeat the process over and over, tapping into the cell below and tapping on Paste until the required number of terms is generated. In subsequent examples we will explore other ways of quickly pasting the formula into a large number of cells.

This example uses the spreadsheet application to create the well-known Fibonacci sequence 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, where each term is the sum of the previous two. From the Main Menu tap Spreadsheet. In spreadsheet tap File, New.
Tap into cell A1 and use the keyboard to enter 1 and then tap EXE, repeating again in cell A2. In cell A3, tap on = to start a formula, tap into cell A2, tap +, tap into cell A1 and then tap EXE. The result in cell A3 is 2. Tap back into cell A3 to see the screen at right.
To copy this formula into the next 100 cells proceed as follows. With cell A3 highlighted, tap on Edit, Fill Range. Tap into the Range box and edit it to read A3:A100. Note that the colon to separate A3 and A100 is in the second row on the screen. Tap OK.
92
Hide the keyboard and scroll down. Note that eventually some values of the sequence are too wide to be displayed as integers in the spreadsheet cells. Tap and drag on the border between the column headings to widen the column. Alternatively tap on Edit, Column Width and set the value to 80, the maximum allowable width.
Scrolling further down, Classpad is displaying the 50th and subsequent terms in scientific notation. Tap on the column heading A to select the whole column.
Next tap in order to display the terms exactly.
Eventually Classpad cannot display the exact value within the cell and simply shows a truncated number.
With a single cell highlighted tap and now the exact value can be seen in its entirety.

This example uses the spreadsheet application to create the geometric sequence 100, 50, 25, 12.5, From the Main Menu tap Spreadsheet. In spreadsheet tap File, New. Use the keyboard to enter 100 into cell A1 and tap EXE. Start a formula in cell A2 with =, tap into cell A1 and then add 0.5. Tap EXE.
Cell A2 now contains 50. Experiment with tapping onto cell A2. Sometimes you will see this and sometimes - a white highlight inside the cell. When you see the white highlight, Classpad will let you drag a copy of this cell into another cell. Tap and drag to extend the formula into the next few cells in column A.
To create the sum of the terms of this sequence in column B, tap into cell B1 Tap = to start a formula, tap into cell A1 and tap EXE.
94
With cell B2 selected, start a formula with =. Tap into B1, tap +, tap into A2, tap EXE. The number 150 is now displayed in cell B2, using the formula =B1+A2.
Copy and paste this formula into cells, B3, B4 and so on to generate the sums of the terms of this geometric sequence.
Modify the first term of this sequence from 100 to 20. Tap into cell A1, type in 20 and tap EXE. Note how the whole spreadsheet instantly updates. Extension: Modify this spreadsheet to also accommodate any common ratio stored in cell C1.
