SailinWind Posted May 9, 2015 Report Share Posted May 9, 2015 (edited) Hi! I will be taking the HL Math exam soon and I am confused as to what apps are allowed on my calculator? I have the TI 84+ c silver edition. I have these apps that are preloaded on the calculator: App4MathPolynomial Root Finder/Simultaneous Equation SolverFinanceEasyData Thank you for your help!

Thrashmaster Posted May 10, 2015 Report Share Posted May 10, 2015 Well, I know that my Nspire has to be in test mode, and that in test mode the Polynomial root finder/ simultaneous equation solver is removed. So I imagine, at the very least, that shouldn't be allowed on the test. Finance is still enabled, not that it helps with anything. I don't know about those other two.

Is it really the case that we can't use PolySmith? I sat in 2014 exam, and everybody in my class was allowed to use that. You can take a look at this thread that I started last year: http://www.ibsurvival.com/topic/29299-gdc-use-in-the-exam/#entry215773 So SailinWind, I think both Finance & PolySmith (Polynomial & Simultaneous equation solver) are allowed. I'm not sure about the other 2 either. You should maybe check that with your math teacher or IB-coordinator. Good luck with the exam! Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know about those other two.You're supposed to uncheck "disable polynomial root finder and simultaneous equation finder" along with a couple of other allowed options when going into the test mode on the nspire mate. I'm 100% positive that you're allowed to use both during the MaHL exams. 1 Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

mechnight Posted May 10, 2015 Report Share Posted May 10, 2015 We are allowed it as well, together with finance. As said above, not that it helps... Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
