 How to Operate
Read Before Using
This operation guide has been written mainly based on the EL-W535TG model.
And some functions described here are featured on the EL-W516T model only.

4. DISPLAY FORMAT AND

DECIMAL SETTING FUNCTION
For convenient and easy operation, this model can be used in one of five display modes.
The selected display status is shown in the upper part of the display (Display format indicator).
Note: If more 0’s (zeros) than needed are displayed when the ON/C key is pressed, check
whether or not the calculator is set to a Special Display Format.
• Floating decimal point format 1/2 (N1/N2 is displayed)*1
Valid values beyond the maximum range are displayed in the form of [10-digit
(mantissa) + 2-digit (exponent)]
• Fixed decimal point format (FIX is displayed)
Displays the fractional part of the calculation result according to the specified
number of decimal places.
• Scientific notation (SCI is displayed)
Frequently used in science to handle extremely small or large numbers.
• Engineering scientific notation (ENG is displayed)
Convenient for converting between different units.

*1 The calculator has two settings for displaying a floating point number:
NORM1 (default setting) and NORM2. In each display setting, a number is
automatically displayed in scientific notation outside a preset range:
• NORM1: 0.000000001 < _x< _ 9999999999
_ _
• NORM2: 0.01 < x < 9999999999

5. EXPONENT DISPLAY
The distance from the earth to the sun is approx. 150,000,000 (1.5 x 108) km. Values
such as this with many zeros are often used in scientific calculations, but entering the
zeros one by one is a great deal of work and it’s easy to make mistakes. In such
cases, the numerical values are divided into mantissa and exponent portions,
displayed and calculated.

<Example> What is the number of electrons flowing in a conductor when

the electrical charge across a given cross-section is 0.32 coulombs.
(The charge on a single electron = 1.6 x 10-19 coulombs).

0.32 1.6 19

6. ANGULAR UNIT
Angular values are converted from DEG to RAD to GRAD with each push of the DRG►
key (2nd function of ). This function is used when doing calculations related to
trigonometric functions or coordinate geometry conversions.

Degrees (DEG is shown at the top of the display)

A commonly used unit of measure for angles. The angular measure of a circle
is expressed as 360°.

Radians (RAD is shown at the top of the display)

Radians are different from degrees and express angles based on the circumfer-
ence of a circle. 180° is equivalent to π radians. Therefore, the angular mea-
sure of a circle is 2π radians.

Grads (GRAD is shown at the top of the display)

Grads are a unit of angular measure used in Europe, particularly in France. An
angle of 90 degrees is equivalent to 100 grads.
The relationships between the three types
of angular units can be expressed as right: π
90° (DEG) = 2
π/2 (RAD) =
100 (GRAD) =

<Example> Check to confirm 90 degrees equaling π/2 radians

equaling 100 grads. (π=3.14159...)

<Example 2>
A drop of rain falls against an air resistance proportional to the square of the fall
velocity. The velocity v at time t seconds after the start of the fall is given by the
following equation:
v = AtanhBt [m/s]
A = 6.82

(A and B are constants determined by a raindrop diameter of 1 mm and the
physical properties of air.)

Find the fall velocity at time t = 0, 1, 2, 5, 10, 15.

*As the calculations are continued, v approaches 6.82. Therefore, the

velocity of a raindrop is about 6.82 m/s (24.6 km/h) when it reaches the ground.

(This example is for EL-W516T only.)
<Example 1>
To produce one unit of product X, 3 kg of material A and 1 kg of material B
are required.
To product one unit of product Y, 1 kg of material A and 2 kg of material B
are required.
There are 9 kg of A and 8 kg of B in stock.
If the selling price of product X is 300 dollars/unit and the selling price of
product Y is 200 dollars/unit, how many units of product X and how many
units of product Y should be produced in order to maximize sales K?
(Do not include the cost of materials and production or other expenses)

If the quantities produced of each product are x and y, the sales K can be
expressed as
K = 3x + 2y
The following relations hold for the quantities in stock:
3x + y 9
x + 2y 8
x 0, y 0
Based on these conditions, find the values of x and y that maximize sales K.

K=3x+2y

P

The conditions can be graphed as shown above.

The sales K is a maximum where the line K = 3x + 2y passes through the
intersection point P of lines 3x + y = 9 and x + 2y = 8.

The intersection point P can be obtained from the following simultaneous equations:
3x + y = 9
x + 2y = 8
Solving these gives
x = 2, y = 3
and thus the maximum value of the sales K is
K = 3 x 2 + 2 x 3 = 12 (x 100) dollars (when x = 2 units and y = 3 units)

When ethanol C2H5OH is completely combusted, carbon dioxide CO2 and
water H2O are created.
The chemical reaction formula of this reaction is expressed as follows:
x C2H5OH + 3O2 y CO2 + z H2O

Find the values of x, y, and z to complete the chemical reaction formula.

The numbers of C, H, and O before and after the reaction are equal, hence
Number of C: 2x = y
Number of H: 5x + x = 2z
Number of O: x + 6 = 2y+ z

As such, the following simultaneous equations are obtained:

2x - y + = 0
6x - 2z = 0
x - 2y - z = - 6

Solving these gives

x = 1, y = 2, z = 3

Matrix Calculation
(This example is for EL-W516T only.)
<Example>
In a certain year (year 0), the share of manufacturer A is 10% and the
share of manufacturer B is 90%. Manufacturer A then releases a new
product, and each following year it maintains 90% of the share ak it had
the previous year (year k), and usurps 20% of the share bk of
manufacturer B.
Find the transition matrix for this process and the shares of
manufacturers A and B after 2 years.
10%

Manufacturer A Manufacturer B
Share 10% Share 90%

20%

Answer
The share of each company after one year is expressed as follows using
a0 and b0.
a1 = 0.9a0 + 0.2b0
b1 = (1-0.9)a0 + (1-0.2)b0
Thus, a1 and b1 are
a1 = 0.9a0 + 0.2b0
b1 = 0.1a0 + 0.8b0
The transition matrix is
0.9 0.2
A=
0.1 0.8
In the same way, after two years
a2 = 0.9a1 + 0.2b1
b2 = 0.1a1 + 0.8b1
Expressing a2 and b2 using a0 and b0 gives
a2 = 0.9(0.9a0 + 0.2b0) + 0.2(0.1a0 + 0.8b0)
= (0.9 x 0.9 + 0.2 x 0.1)a0 + (0.9 x 0.2 + 0.2 x 0.8)b0
= 0.83a0 + 0.34b0
b2 = 0.1(0.9a0 + 0.2b0) + 0.8(0.1a0 + 0.8b0)
= (0.1 x 0.9 + 0.8 x 0.1)a0 + (0.1 x 0.2 + 0.8 x 0.8)b0
= 0.17a0 + 0.66b0
In summary,
a2 = 0.83a0 + 0.34b0
b2 = 0.17a0 + 0.66b0
0.83 0.34
A2 =
0.17 0.66 : This is equal to matA2.
