Calculators allowed in Math exam
« on: April 20, 2011, 06:04:47 pm »
which calculator is allowed in math 0580 IGCSE exam??
fx-991ES or fx-85ES  ??
if both of them are allowed, then choose the two options (in the poll)
our math teacher said that we cant use fx991ES, so i just want to make sure.

Take whatever calc you want into the exam. Just make sure it isnt a graphic calculator and dont go asking around if your calculator is allowed.

Anyways, you're marked according to the workings and not simply a correct answer.

No one is going to check.

As long as you DON'T bring in a graphic calculator you'll be fine.

Also, I doubt any of those calculators has the potential for solving algebraic equations.

fx 991es can solve quadratic equations.
and equations of the form:
anX + bnY + cnZ = dn
anX + bnY= cn
ax^3 + bx^2 + cx +d = 0
