Negative sign (–) Note: When squaring a negative value (such as –2), the value being squared must be enclosed in parentheses ( (- 2 )w 2 =). Since x has a higher priority than the negative sign, 5th inputting - 2 w= would result in the squaring of 2 and then appending a negative sign to the result. Always keep the priority sequence in mind, and enclose negative values in parentheses when required. 6th STAT Mode estimated values ( m, n, m1 , m2 ) 7th Multiplication w
