More Information

Permalink Submitted by Anonymous on September 24, 2015

I am in eighth grade, and am doing a school project.
Could someone provide some more information on this topic or direct me to a another helpful website? I am able to understand up to algebra 2 and some basic precalculus, so nothing above calculus, please!

Help is appreciated
Thank You
