It's my son's second day of Year 9 at High School and he has just been given his 1st Scientific Calculator and doesn't know how to do an algebra homework question on it. Neither do I and the instructions that come with it don't seem an easy read.

Can anyone give me a pointer on what buttons to press as I've never used one before .... ??

Would this help? Or maybe some other. I punched

"scientific calculator" instructions

into Scroogle and retrieved a bunch of hits. Some may be less impenetrable than your printed instructions, but I'd be the last person who could supply an informed opinion.

How did you reply before I did? Is there a quantum mechanical causation-reversal under way?

Maybe I hit edit after it posted, or something. I shouldn't attempt anything more difficult than breathing when I should be asleep.
