Select the table start, table step, auto, or ask- X options and press GQ. The table is displayed using the specified values. Start Specifies the starting value for the independent variable, x. Step Specifies the incremental value for the independent variable, x. Auto The calculator automatically generates a series of values based on table start and table step. Ask-x Lets you build a table manually by entering specific values for the independent variable, x.
