ستتعلّم
- Formulate linear, quadratic and exponential models from situations and data.
- Interpret the parameters of a model and use it to make predictions with stated assumptions.
- Validate a model against data and explain where and why it fails.
تعريف
- A mathematical model is a simplified mathematical description of a real situation, together with its assumptions.
- Validation compares a model's predictions with observations.
مبرهنة
- A quantity growing continuously at rate r doubles every (ln 2)/r units of time.
- Every model leaves out features of reality; it is judged by whether it serves its purpose.
- Extrapolating far beyond the range of the data is risky.
مفاهيم خاطئة شائعة
- Treating a model's output as fact rather than as a consequence of its assumptions.
- Choosing the model that best fits past data regardless of whether it is plausible.
اكتشافات اختيارية
- Mathematical biology Models of populations and epidemics are built from differential equations.
