sorry. i am using the ti-84 plus ce calculator with the ti innovator hub and the temperature sensor (LM19). for my program now, i have “input “m = ?” ,m (same for b) and in the mx+b formula i decided to use x as the analog input from placing my temperature sensor in the water. then this mx+b formula will give me the temperature in celsius. i have been trying to figure out different codes that allow me to have the slope and y-intercept without me needing to type it in physically during competition. thank you!

Re: Detector Building Calibration Thermometer Specs
What I would suggest is taking data prior to the competition, recording the the analog input from the sensor as x and the temperature of your thermometer as y. Create a linear regression from this data, and put the m and b values into your calculator.fyuan483 wrote: ↑February 7th, 2020, 2:40 pmsorry. i am using the ti-84 plus ce calculator with the ti innovator hub and the temperature sensor (LM19). for my program now, i have “input “m = ?” ,m (same for b) and in the mx+b formula i decided to use x as the analog input from placing my temperature sensor in the water. then this mx+b formula will give me the temperature in celsius. i have been trying to figure out different codes that allow me to have the slope and y-intercept without me needing to type it in physically during competition. thank you!
If you choose to calibrate your device competition day, take a few additional data points with the water they provide you with, and put these points into your regression. Replace the values of m and b in your calculator.
