Summary
[edit | edit source]| Description | Screenshot of a TI-89 calculator graphical computation of one of the two roots of the quadratic equation 2x2 + 4x − 4 = 0. Although the display shows only five significant figures of accuracy, the retrieved value of xc is 0.732050807569, accurate to twelve significant figures. Will be used in Quadratic equation |

| Use in article (WP:NFCC#7) | Quadratic equation |
| Purpose of use in article (WP:NFCC#8) | To illustrate use of a calculator to perform graphical computation of the roots of a quadratic equation. |
| Not replaceable with free media because (WP:NFCC#1) |
The graph, intended to illustrate use of a graphing calculator to solve a quadratic equation, necessarily includes visual design elements of the actual graphing calculator screen. These visual design elements are proprietary features of the calculator. |
| Minimal use (WP:NFCC#3) | Will be using only this one single screenshot in the article. |
| Respect for commercial opportunities (WP:NFCC#2) |
This is a computation of a single, trivial example of a quadratic equation. Texas Instruments sells calculators so that, among many other functions, their customers may freely be able to produce such images. Publication of such images will not detract from TI's ability to sell calculators. |
