CE Quick Start Instructions

To get Zoom Math for your TI-84 Plus CE, click here.

Once you have Zoom Math installed on your CE, you will probably want to buy a registration key or at least get a free registration key that unlocks basic equation solving.

Then type these keystroke sequences to see some Zoom Math tricks and shortcuts:

  • 1÷2+2÷3 [trace] [trace] [mode] [mode]
  • (x2+5x+6)÷(x2+4x+4) [trace] [trace]
  • [2nd-minus] 2x+3 [2nd-minus] [y=] 8 [enter]

Next, try pressing a few keys with [alpha] held down. This shortcut will be useful someday if you want to type several letters in a row.

To solve an equation for a variable, type a+b=4 [enter] [enter] b= [enter]. (Remember, you type the equals sign by pressing the [y=] key.)

If you bought a registration key, to solve a system of linear equations, type x+y=10 [enter] [enter] x-y=2 [trace]. Zoom Math knows two different methods for solving a system of linear equations, and in this case what you’re seeing is the first step of the elimination method. If you press [mode] once, Zoom Math will switch to the substitution method. If you press [mode] again, it will switch back. Once you have traced past the first step, you can’t change the method.

Similarly, Zoom Math knows three methods for solving a quadratic equation, and you can usually switch methods on the first or second step by pressing [mode]. For example, type x2+5x=6 [trace] [mode] [mode] [trace] [mode] [mode] [trace] [trace].

    "Prior to using Zoom I had debilitating anxiety over math success, now that fear is completely gone." - Lori B., Los Angeles, CA

    "I am a 43 yr old mom of five sons and going back to college has been a struggle and math is one of my weakest areas. I must say that ZOOM MATH got me through this hard process wonderfully" - Sabrina K. Tampa, FL

    "This app has saved my life!" - Natalie W. Portland, OR

    "Your programs were instrumental in helping me pass and more importantly, understand, the Algebra and Business/Finance math courses that I had to take to obtain my Associates degree." - Mark C. Buffalo, NY

    "Prior to teaching myself with Zoom Math my ACT on the math section was 24 three times in a row. After studying the problems I missed with Zoom Math's Trace feature as my guide I was able to pull my math section of the ACT up to a 31. I now have a 30 composite score and a full ride to the University of Alabama and you guys are 100% responsible!" - Andrew T., Sacramento, CA

    "We received my son's MCT scores from 10th grade (end of last year). He jumped 3 levels and scored highest in his class." - Kathy J. Austin, TX

    "I completed my math course 6 1/2 weeks ahead of time. It would not have been possible without your ZOOM 300 SOFTWARE. If I had your product at the beginning of my 24 week course I would have completed this course within 2 weeks." - Bernard P., Los Angeles, CA
