Linear Solver app

The Linear Solver app enables you to solve a set of linear equations. The set can contain two or three linear equations.

In a two-equation set, each equation must be in the form ax + by = k . In a three-equation set, each equation must be in the form ax + by + cz = k .

You provide values for a, b, and k (and c in three-equation sets) for each equation, and the app will attempt to solve for x and y (and z in three-equation sets).

The HP Prime will alert you if no solution can be found, or if there is an infinite number of solutions.

Getting started with the Linear Solver app

The following example defines the following set of equations and then solves for the unknown variables:

Open the Linear Solver app

6x + 9y + 6z = 5

7x + 10y + 8z = 10 6x + 4y = 6

1.Open the Linear Solver app. ISelect

Linear Solver

The app opens in Numeric view.
