Two Calculators

<p>The Collegeboard AP Website says that I can bring two calculators for a mathematics test. Does this mean that I can use them both at the same time?</p>

<p>I am planning on taking Calculus AB and Statistics. </p>

<p>I have a TI-89, and a TI-81.. one of the newer calculators paired with one of the older ones. I'm still trying to get used to me 89, but it's still really REALLY complicated.</p>

<p>Each calculator has things that are easier to find than the other. For example, my 81 has trigonometric buttons, an x^2 button, etc. But its Statistics program is really primitive and hard to use. My 89 has everything that my 81 has, but they are hidden under the MATH folders. Sometimes I have to search through my catalog to find something that my 81 has a button to.</p>

<p>My ideal situation is to use my 89 for its powerful programs and have my 81 on the side for basic calculations.</p>

<p>same as you. ti-89 and 83+. cant use both on math 2 sat lol.</p>

<p>You can use both at the same time. You’ll probably need to learn some of the features on the TI-89 as the TI-81 is not a recommended calculator and doesn’t have all the necessary features.</p>
