fx-CG500 Quick Start Guide 3
If an object, such as a ball, is dropped from a initial height, c, the height, h, in feet, as a
function of time, t, in seconds, can be modeled by h= -16t2+ c.
If the object is tossed upwards with an initial velocity, v, then the model becomes
h= -16t2+ vt + c. These models ignore air resistance.
1. If a ball is dropped from a height of 120 feet,
compute the height after 2 seconds.
Tap Mfor the Main menu.
Press z16*2^2+120E.
For a more mathematical display, the raised exponent
template can be found on the Math1 Keyboard.
Press z16*2kO2:
+120E.
This expression can also be evaluated using a variable for
substitution. A command in the form expression | variable =
value means evaluate the expression with the given value(s)
substituted for the variable(s).
Press z16k_[)O2:
+120-U_[=2E.

2. Compute the time when the height of the ball is
84 feet.
The value can be computed using the square root
and fraction templates from Math1.
Tap k5N84-
120Cz16E.
The value can also be computed using a solve
command from Math1. The format is
(equation,variable) even if there is only one variable
in the equation.
Tap)`z16_[)O
2:+120=84,_
[)E.
3. A ball is tossed upwards with an initial velocity
of 56 feet/second, from an initial height of 120 feet.
Compute the time and the height when the ball is at
a maximum height.
Commands such as fMax are found under the
Interactive and the Action menus. The Interactive
commands open a dialogue box which gives
prompts for the input. The fMax command uses x
as the default variable, but another variable such
as tcan be used.
MAIN MENU
fx-CG500 Quick Start Guide 5
Tap Interactive, Calculation, fMin/fMax, fMax
and complete the inputs as shown. (Part of the rst
coefcient, -16, has scrolled off the screen.)
Then tap OK.
4. Rewrite the expression from Question 3 in
factored form.
Tap Interactive, Transformation, factor, factor.
MAIN MENU
fx-CG500 Quick Start Guide6
Enter the expression in the box. Then tap OK.
5. This model expresses height, or position, as a
function of time. Construct a model for velocity as a
function of time.
The velocity would be the derivative of the position
function.
Tap Interactive, Calculation, diff.
MAIN MENU
fx-CG500 Quick Start Guide 7
Enter the expression in the box. (Again, part of the
rst coefcient, -16, has scrolled off the screen.)
Then tap OK.
Alternately, the template for a derivative from
Math2 can be used; the result will look the same.

6. Compute the instantaneous velocity at time
2 seconds.
The only difference is to tap the bullet for Derivative
at value, and to enter the value in the last box.
For a more intuitive display, use the derivative
template from Math2 and the “with” (U) command
on Math3.

7. Compute the total net distance that the ball
travels.
The ball had an initial height of 120 and fell to height
of 0, so the net distance should be -120.
For a calculus connection, integrate the velocity
function.
Tap k9P.
Enter the integrand, the variable, and the limits.
The variable t can be found at 9, then tap E.
8. Compute the total distance that the ball travels.
The initial height and the maximum height are known,
so the total distance can be easily
computed.
For another calculus connection, another integral
can be used. The traditional approach is to use two
integrals, but it is quicker to use the absolute value
template, which can be found in 9.

The ClassPad has a symbolic algebra system, sometimes called a computer algebra system,
or CAS. An important distinction is a calculator using symbolic algebra can manipulate
undeclared variables. The factoring example from Question 4 was an illustration. It is usually
a good idea to tap Edit, then Clear All Variables to ensure that the variables do not have
a value stored in memory. The next 2 questions illustrate additional symbolic algebra.
9. If a model for the height of a ball thrown upwards
as a function of time is given by h= -16t2+ vt + c,
compute an expression for the time when the ball
hits the ground.
Tap Interactive, Equation, solve.
Enter the equation in the box by pressing k
and tap _to view the variables. The negative
sign is to the left of 16 and has scrolled off.
Enter the variable in the second box and tap E,
or press the Ekey; then tap OK.
