Re: T-89/92 Solver?



Try the  Application Numeric Solver.

Press [APPS] 9

I'm not sure what you mean by "Log", is this base 10 or base e?
The TI-89 and TI-92+ plus does not have a base 10 key like the TI-85 and TI-86's
have. If you want log base 10 use a change of base formula:

log(b)(x)=ln(x)/ln(b)

Good Luck
