*Nature of mathematics

a) Recognizing patterns feels natural like our brain is hardwired to recognized

The awareness of these patterns allowed human to survived.
This chapter will look help patterns and regularities in the world
b) Patterns and number in nature in the world- patterns are regular, repeated
recurring forms or design which are commonly observed in natural object
like six folds symmetry of snowflake, hexagonal structure and formation of
honeycombs, tigers stripes and hyena spot. Human are hard wired to
recognize the patterns and by studying them we discovered the underlying
mathematical principle behind nature comb.
c) Exponential growth model pollution growth and bacterial decay can be
modeled by the exponential growth or decay A=Pert .

*Fibonacci sequence

a) Sequence- ordered list of numbers called terms that may have repeated
values. The arrangement of these terms is set by a definite rule.
Applying the rule to previous terms of the sequence generate different
terms of the sequence.
b) Fibonacci sequence- this sequence is formed by adding the preceeding two
Number, starting with 0 and 1. The most aesthetically pleasing proportion
golden ratio is approximated by the ratios of Fibonacci numbers

*Mathematics for organization

a) Mathematical tool to help us to make sound and analysis and better

decision. Stores can boost their sales by making necessary adjustments by
gathering data on shopping habit and prospective customers.
in the field of social media, analyst can crunch all on the posting
personalities. More so endangered animal population can be conserved by
plotting migration routes

*Mathematics for prediction

a) Mathematical models can generate analysis and interpretation using

existing data. Experts can calculate the chance of an event occurring by
applying the concept of probability. A good example is weather forecast.
Meteorologist make forecast which aid us in the preparation of our daily
activities

*Mathematics control

a) Natural object phenomenon behave by the underlying mathematical

structure. Interactions and relationships of nature can be described by
mathematical equations. Through technological advancement humans
were able to expand the horizons and be able to prove certain phenomena.
Mathematics as tool, mas is able to exert control of himself and the effects
of nature examples are climate change and global warming

*Mathematics indispensable

a) Mathematics played a major role in the underpinnings of the world.

Different field endeavor needs mathematics logical reasoning and critical
thinking skills are required in any endeavor. In understanding the natural
world and making educate decisions mathematics is a useful tool
