Can anyone explain to me in lames terms the use of the algebraic Formula : Pert?
Right now, I need some serious help and there is only so much time I can get with the campus tutors.
Since I don't want to over run gaia with my ignorance, I'm doing one thing at a time.
Or if you don't know Pert,
Can you explain to me how to work, set up, identify, and graph
For Parabolas, Ellipses, Hyperbolas, and circles?
ANYONE?

all i recall from parabolas I learned from Kepler.
You can do this with a good textbook, a pencil, a piece of string, and two thumb tacks. As you increase the distance between two thumb tacks and draw a circle tracing the string, you can create an ellipse. This is somewhat related to having a vesica pisces inside another at variable rotation.

I wasn't really great with Algebra. Science, that I can do. but I have found that most things in life don't require much more than basic math. IE add, subtract, multiply, divide, and fractions. I probably learned those formulas in Algebra, but from not having used them since, I have to say I don't even remember them.
Maybe no one answered because they don't remember and didn't want to clutter up your thread with a bunch of "I don't know" or "I don't remember."
I don't know what the average age of the people in this forum are, but I can say I haven't taken a math class in over a decade.

Without more context than you've given us it would be impossible for someone to answer your question. You could be talking about business algorithms but I can't be sure.
As for your second question are you talking about graphical calculus?
Throwing a question that has meaning to you in a given class out into the wider world without context or any other identification is destined to be a frustrating exercise.
