Synthesis Paper MTH

This document discusses how mathematics can help control nature and occurrences in the world for human benefit. It provides several examples of how mathematics is used to explain natural phenomena, from snowflake formation to building construction. Mathematics allows humans to quantify things in nature and model their behavior, which enables control and prediction. This in turn helps applications like medicine development and disaster response. The document argues mathematics is a powerful tool for understanding the world and addressing real problems in a global context.

Write a two-to three-page synthesis paper focusing on one of the following aspects of
mathematics:
(a) Mathematics helps organize patterns and regularities in the world.
(b) Mathematics helps predict the behavior of nature and phenomena in the world.
(c) Mathematics helps control nature and occurrences in the world for our own ends

“Mathematics helps control nature and occurrences in the world for our own
ends”

Mathematics is one of most important aspects in our daily lives. It helps us tell
time, assists us in finances, engage us with better problem-solving skills and helps us to
understand the world better. Mathematics is spreading across the universe, you could
see it almost everywhere. Through the tallest building in the world up to the smallest
detail of a particles.

Mathematics helps in controlling nature and occurrences because some of


them behave mathematically. Like a snowflake that is a perfect example of a fractal. A
building that is composed of constructive measurements to stand taller and microchip
that is composed of 0's and 1's to regulate the process. These are just examples
reminding us that Mathematics is a very strong soul or origin of anything. The power of
mathematics is discussed as a way of expressing reasoning, aesthetics and insight in
symbolic non-verbal communication. The human culture of discovering mathematical
ways of thinking in the enterprise of exploring the understanding of the nature and the
evolution of our world through hypotheses, theories and experimental affirmation of the
scientific notion of algorithmic and non-algorithmic ‘computation’, is examined and
commended upon.

Humans are good at counting things then adding, subtracting, dividing, and
multiplying so that equations can be formed to explain every piece of physical, three-
dimensional matter. If the equations do not equal zero, then little bits of matter can be
subtly and elegantly shifted into constants so that all the equations of that particular
concept will be the same. Law, order, and symmetry will work well in creating a
homogenous, Isotropic universe of heat and entropy that can be worked with.

Mathematics usually controls the balance of the amount of living and non-
living, helping science to solve such an increase of matter around us. Math is also used
to control every amount or heaviness of matter, just for example it helps the scientist to
know how much matter is needed to create medicines. Especially in this time,
Mathematics helps our front liners to create vaccines for the pandemic or Corona Virus.
Sometimes Math helps on how nature will be evolving over a period of time, which helps
us to be aware of what we will be needing to do in the future.

Mathematics can be used to explain how something recurs in nature.


Mathematics is used to explain why the Sun set, where it went, & why it returned
because it was easier to count these events in numbers than to put them into words.
Similarly, formulas became a way of using numbers to show how things in nature
happen together or oppose one another. Mathematics is helpful especially when
seeking to explain the limitless feeling one gets when contemplating the natural world
that exists outside ourselves. The logic of any idea that can be explained in words can
be reinforced mathematically to reach & persuade a larger audience about its
concurrency with natural phenomena, its economic applicability & its business potential.

Mathematics can explain how quickly water becomes contaminated and how
many people in a third-world country drinking that water might become sickened on a
yearly basis. A study of geometry can explain the science behind architecture
throughout the world. Statistics and probability can estimate death tolls from
earthquakes, conflicts and other calamities around the world. It can also predict profits,
how ideas spread, and how previously endangered animals might repopulate. Math is a
powerful tool for global understanding and communication. Using it, students can make
sense of the world and solve complex and real problems. Rethinking math in a global
context offers students a twist on the typical content that makes the math itself more
applicable and meaningful for students.

2020 is a year of insight, hindsight and for open minded people, fore sight of
a planet of peace, unconditional love, and creativity. I personally think it is a year for the
open-minded people rather than those who like to count things. Especially money and
body counts.
