Max degree of polynomial a hp 50g can solve? Message #1 Posted by ferroburak on 25 Nov 2009, 4:59 p.m. Hi, I wonder maximum degree of polynomial a hp 50g can solve. For example can it solve a 4th degree equation? Will this calculation have significant error?

Message #2 Posted by Arnaud Amiel on 26 Nov 2009, 3:50 a.m., in response to message #1 by ferroburak Numerically, you can get all the digits for most polynomials up to a very high order. Symbolically, you will need to use programs to solve above order 2. In that case, there is no error. Arnaud
