HP 32SII More about Solving C

The search halts because SOLVE is working on a horizontal asymptote—an area where f(x) is essentially constant for a wide range of x (see figure b, below). The ending value of f(x) is the value of the potential asymptote.

The search is concentrated in a local "flat" region of the function (see figure c, below). The ending value of f(x) is the value of the function in this region.

f (x)

Case Where No Root Is Found

The SOLVE operation returns a math error if an estimate produces an operation that is not allowed — for example, division by zero, a square root of a negative number, or a logarithm of zero. Keep in mind that SOLVE can generate estimates over a wide range. You can sometimes avoid math errors by using good guesses. If a math error occurs, press Kunknown variable (or {variable) to see the value that produced the error.
