– 3) you want to graph.

4. Press

6(DRAW) to graph the function.

• This will display a graph screen. Since the graph intersects the

x

-axis at –1.5 and 1,

we can conclude that the solution (

x

= 1) obtained in step 4 is valid. The –1.5 value

was not included as a solution because we specifi ed a lower limit of 0.

• The graph drawn here is stored in the strip we created in step 5.
