SLOPE FIELD

TI 83

-This program plots the slope field for the differential equation in the form ${\hbox{dy}\over \hbox{dx}}=\hbox{f(x,y)}$ . Set an appropraite WINDOW prior to running the program.

Note: Information in {} is not put into the calculator. Information in RED denotes a button on the calculator

Note: Information like BLUE(RED) means to access BLUE hit 2ed then RED

An expression f(x,y) must also be entered before running this program. For x, use X,T,q,n. For Y use ALPHA then Y.
