Editing Tables and Drawing Graphs

Example 2 Draw a graph of

a

n

+1

= 2

a

n

+ 1 with

Σ

a

n

on the vertical axis and

n

on the horizontal axis, and with the points unconnected.

Use the same View Window parameters as those provided in
Example 1.

(TABL)6(G·PLT)

(Selects plot type.)

• To input a different recursion formula after a graph is drawn, press ! Q.

This displays the Recursion Menu where you can input a new formula.

Drawing a Convergence/Divergence Graph (WEB graph)

With this feature, you can draw a graph of

a

n

+1

=

f

(

a

n

) where

a

n

+1

and

a

n

are the

terms of linear recursion between two terms, substituted respectively for

y

and

x

in

the function

y

=

f

(

x

). The resulting graph can then be viewed to determine whether

or not the graph is convergent or divergent.

Example 1 To determine whether or not the recursion formula

a

n

+1

= –3

a

n

2

+ 3

a

n

is convergent or divergent.

Use the following table range.
Start = 0

End = 6

a

0

= 0.01

a

n

Str = 0.01

b

0

= 0.11

b

n

Str = 0.11

Use the following View Window parameters.
Xmin = 0

Ymin = 0

Xmax = 1

Ymax = 1

Xscale = 1

Yscale = 1

This example assumes that the following two recursion formulas are already
stored in memory.

1. Press 6(TABL) 4(WEB) to draw the graph.
