Manual-Fit
allows you to fit a line to plotted data on the Graph
screen manually (as opposed to the calculator automatically
drawing it for you). You can execute
Manual-Fit
from either the
Graph screen or the Home screen.
From the Graph screen, select
Manual-Fit,
and then draw the
line (steps provided below). The linear equation in the form
y=ax+b
is shown at the top of the Graph screen. You can use
the cursors to adjust the line, if necessary, and the
a
and
b
equation values change accordingly.
From the Home screen,
Manual-Fit
accepts one optional
argument, Yn. The calculator stores to Yn (in the Y= editor)
the
ax+b
equation that manually fits the plotted data. To access
the
Y
n
variables, press

$
and
#
, and the
y-intercept with
!
and
"
, if desired.
5. If you specified a
Y
n
variable on the Home screen, you can
view the selected and defined equation in the Y= editor
(
