SlopeField Command

SlopeField( <f(x,y)> )

Plots a slope field of the differential equation \(\frac{dy}{dx}=f(x,y)\)

SlopeField(x+y) plots the slope field of the differential equation \(\frac{dy}{dx}=x+y\).

SlopeField( <f(x,y)>, <Number n> )

Plots a slope field of the differential equation \(\frac{dy}{dx}=f(x,y)\) on an n by n grid (if the Menu view graphics.svg Graphics View is square) or a smaller grid if not. Default is 40.

SlopeField( <f(x,y)>, <Number n>, <Length Multiplier a> )

Plots a slope field of the differential equation \(\frac{dy}{dx}=f(x,y)\). The Length Multiplier 0<a≤1 determines how long the segments are.

SlopeField( <f(x,y)>, <Number n>, <Length Multiplier a>, <Min x>, <Min y>, <Max x>, <Max y> )

Plots a slope field of the differential equation \(\frac{dy}{dx}=f(x,y)\) inside the specified rectangle (rather than filling the Menu view graphics.svg Graphics View)
