Is it faster to do matrices in the 84 or by hand if you know what you are doing?

Well, I have no idea how to do it by calculator, so yeah, it's manual for me. I would think that if you know what you're doing, it's way faster to do it by hand. But that's just my opinion.

Depends, if your just working with a normal 3x3 matrix, it's quicker with a calculator.
If your solving for a variable inside a matrix or working with a 2x2 matrix, it's quicker by hand.
