Download or read book Mathematics in Everyday Life written by John Haigh and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-01-22 with total page 164 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How does mathematics impact everyday events? The purpose of this book is to show a range of examples where mathematics can be seen at work in everyday life. From money (APR, mortgage repayments, personal finance), simple first and second order ODEs, sport and games (tennis, rugby, athletics, darts, tournament design, soccer, snooker), business (stock control, linear programming, check digits, promotion policies, investment), the social sciences (voting methods, Simpson’s Paradox, drug testing, measurements of inequality) to TV game shows and even gambling (lotteries, roulette, poker, horse racing), the mathematics behind commonplace events is explored. Fully worked examples illustrate the ideas discussed and each chapter ends with a collection of exercises. Everyday Mathematics supports other first year modules by giving students extra practice in working with calculus, linear algebra, geometry, trigonometry and probability. Secondary/high school level mathematics is all that is required for students to understand the material. Those students whose degree course includes writing an extended mathematical essay will find many suitable topics here, with pointers to extend and develop the material.

Download or read book Everyday Math for Everyday Life written by Mark Ryan and published by Grand Central Publishing. This book was released on 2009-09-26 with total page 311 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For everyone who’s ever said, “I’m no good with numbers,” here’s a practical, user-friendly field guide to the math you really need. Your dinner bill came to $78.35, plus tip, divided amongst you and two friends. So how did you end up paying $50? In life, there are plenty of instances where a quick calculation would come in handy. Contrary to popular belief, the ability to calculate a tip, eyeball square area, or convert kilometers to miles—without using your fingers or moving your lips—is not inborn. Everyday math skills can be painlessly learned and easily mastered, transforming you from a person who doesn’t know the meaning of APR into someone who understands credit card rates and their long-term impact on your wallet. Broken into sections which review basic arithmetic from fractions to percents, provide situational problems from cooking to gambling, and demystify terms from statistics to relative magnitude to probability, this is the one guide that anyone who took “Math for English majors” can’t live without.

Download or read book The Mathematics of Everyday Life written by Alfred S. Posamentier and published by Prometheus Books. This book was released on 2018-08-21 with total page 309 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Two experienced math educators help the average reader discover not only the everyday usefulness of math but the fun that comes from mastering the basics of arithmetic, algebra, geometry, and more. If you think of mathematics as a series of pointless classroom exercises without much relevance to real life, this book will change your mind. As the authors show, math is deeply embedded in almost every aspect of daily life--from managing your personal finances, making consumer purchases, and sharpening your computational skills, to learning to apply mathematical concepts that will give you a better grasp of both ordinary and extraordinary events and help you better appreciate the world we live in. With some basic geometry under your belt, you'll discover that there is an optimal point on a soccer field from which to shoot a goal. And you'll be more clever with the gears of a bike. If you like to play cards or go to the casino, knowing something about probability will give you an edge. You'll also have an enhanced understanding of the "whispering effect" inside the Capitol rotunda, why a car's headlights are so bright, and even why sewer covers are round. After reading this entertaining and instructive book, you'll come away with a whole new awareness of how elegantly mathematics explains everyday experiences and observations--from present day items to classical art and architecture.

Book excerpt: “Mathematics in Everyday Life -The hidden Language of the World” is a textbook for Undergraduate and Post Graduate students to develop problem solving skills with the advent of logical thinking. Here the authors’ objective is how mathematics will be useful in the fields we come across in Science, Economics, Engineering and Technology by keeping the syllabi of various prestigious universities. The major subfields it covers Mathematical modeling, model theory, proof theory, set theory, recursion theory, Financial Mathematics, Statistics and probability in decision-making, Mathematics in Technology and Communication Engineering etc.,. It also useful in Cryptography and Encryption, Algorithm and coding development. Here the authors were focused on mathematical theory which is a mathematical model of a branch of mathematics that is based on a set of axioms and they emphasized, it can also concurrently be a body of knowledge. This textbook has been written with great effort made by referring text books written on the modern trend of Applicable Mathematics. The topics covered in this book are practical for a scholar who starts learning education in Economics, Sciences ,Technology & Engineering fields.. The mathematical concepts are written from the basic level to reach out to a wide range of student fraternities and teachers in every walk of life more particularly in industrial-related challenging problems

Download or read book Learning Mathematics written by Prof Leone Burton and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2012-10-12 with total page 281 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Learning Mathematics brings together a collection of interrelated and forward-looking chapters by internationally recognized experts that explores changes in the theories and practices of learning (and teaching) mathematics. The authors reject a traditional, transmission view of the teaching of mathematics which has proved so ineffective for learning. In its place they offer information gathered from research and from practice about effects on the learners seeking to create and negotiate meaning. Learners are presented as actively attempting to make sense of the mathematics they encounter, and learners, teachers and researchers are offered examples of ho such sense-making activities, incorporated into mathematics classrooms, impact on coming to know. The book celebrates both diversity, in the range of different perspectives, contributions and topics, and unity, in the linking chapters and themes, It will be fascinating reading for those mathematics educators who are eager to engage with a socio-cultural perspective in order to better understand the complexity of learning mathematics.
