All the time. Quadratic equations are essential to many fairly simple logistical problems. For example, you need to drain your pond. I don't know why - but you need to. And you need to plan the timeline of your activities related to the empty pond, based on when it will be empty. It is fed by a spring, and has a spillway. It also has a culvert drain with a valve attached. You know from what goes over the spillway the rate at which the pond fills. You know the volume of your pond, and the flow of your culvert if you open the valve.

With a simple quadratic equation, you can get a timeline on how soon your pond will be empty. If you don't know algebra, you're **** out of luck. Unless your brother in law understands algebra, and you don't mind proving to him yet again that you're uneducated in basic math. :)
