Wait a bit.

Answer 10

if your calculator opens a left parentheses, make sure to close that parentheses

Answer 11

There's that many calculators out there it's kind of difficult to help with. I'd suggest searching Google for your calculator's manual, and trying to determine the appropriate method.

Answer 12

I'm using Casio, I got a math error, and I plugged in 2500e^(0.035X8)

Answer 13

i bet there are two varieties of e on you calculator ,
you might need to first enter [ shift ] or something like that

Answer 14

have you tried 2500 * e^(0.035*8)?

Um, not yet. wait.

Answer 17

Try .035 * 8=
Then e^x=
Then*2500=
