TI-83 PLUS and I LOVE it! I would have failed pre-calc without it!
(plus... you can store all kinds of stuff in those things...  )

QUOTE(AngelicEyz00 @ Apr 16 2005, 2:57 PM) The TI-89 is relaly useful becausee it solves equations for you and you can graph bot y= and x= equations. I still have my TI-83 though... I need a new one. Costco sells them for like 100 dollars... hmm  all i have is a ti-83 but i wish i had the ti-89 because it would really be helpful to have x=

The most spiffy part about the 89, I think, is that it derives and integrates stuff for you.

QUOTE(Despise @ Apr 16 2005, 12:14 AM) No, but I'm planning on buying one this summer. They're required for geometry. required for geometry? really  I never used one...not a real one, I kind of have a half graphing calculator. It dose everything I've needed for Chemistry, it's just half the size. I'll get one next year though >.< alg2

I needed my graphic calculator all the time for geometry and algebra 2. I have a TI 82 plus, but I only got that so I could be cool like everyone else and put games on there lol. I got mine pretty cheap from home depot.

what i don't get is WHY it's required in HS.. in all my college math classes, calculators are NOT ALLOWED.. u gotta graph everything by hand.. even the 2-D graphs.. for my HARDEST math class, we weren't even allowed a friggin cheat sheet..
but in HS they force u to become so dependent on a calculator that it totally screw people over in college!! and they only let u use the simple $5 scientific calculators in chem/physics cuz they don't want u to cheat.. i still use my graphing calculator when i'm doing simple calculations cuz i'm used to it.. but still.. i thought public schools were suppose to be free.. |

i recommend the TI-83 plus because most high schools will teach with and demonstrate using either 83 or 83 plus

its required for my math class.
the TI-83 PLUS is okay. i have it because my parents didn't want to get the more expensive one. its fine, but has much less memory than the TI-84 Plus for if you want to install programs. The TI-84 Plus Silver Edition looks pretty cool too... |

An oldie but a goodie: TI 83+, i've had it since freshman year, the later versions are more expensive but i find that a TI 83+ is just fine for algebra, geometry and calc, there's really no need to buy a more expensive one.

I don't have one but I want one...
 Both my brothers have one and I don't have one because I'm gonna start high school next year... But by the looks of the calculators my brothers have, It looks confusing with all those buttons
