Much of the math I learned in high school and college lies dormant. But when I sat down to come up with examples of using math skills on the job, I was surprised to find quite a few. I want to share some of the mathematical concepts I've used lately in real-world situations. Algeb...
Some ideas for finding a formula to research would be to use a Google web search for items such as: Automotive Formulas, Plumbing Equations and Formulas, Electrician Equations and Formulas, Fire Equations, Accounting Ratios and Formulas, Economics Equations and Formulas, Financial Equations, Interest ...
Take the real world description and make some equations Solve! Use your common sense to interpret the resultsBalls, Arrows, Missiles and StonesWhen you throw a ball (or shoot an arrow, fire a missile or throw a stone) it goes up into the air, slowing as it travels, then comes down ...
Differential equations (DEs) are a powerful tool for modeling real-world contexts. Most research in this area has examined students' understanding and reasoning with pre-packaged DEs, with little attention being given to setting up sophisticated DEs to model complicated real-world situations. This ...
Robots can handle complex tasks in highly controlled industrial settings. But as MIT’s team in the DARPA Robotics Challenge can attest, getting them to work in disaster sites is much more daunting—and much more interesting.
Math formulae Submit math equations as editable text, not as images. Present simple formulae in line with normal text, where possible. Use the solidus (/) instead of a horizontal line for small fractional terms such as X/Y. Present variables in italics. Denote powers of e by exp. Display...

define applications as being when math- ematics is applied to some aspect of the extra-mathematical world for some purpose including "to understand it better, to investigate issues, to explain phenomena, to solve problems, to pave the way for decisions, …. The term 'real-world' is often ...
Systems of Linear Equations in Real Life and their Solutions. Cell phone plans, cab rides as real world systems of equations
they limit the components’ individual degrees of freedom and reduce their collective dynamical range. Here we show that real-world networks balance the loss of response diversity with gain in information flow. Encoding network states as density matrices, we demonstrate that such a trade-off mathemat...
