- 1What is an Mathematical Model?A simplification of a real world situation.
-used to make predictions about the real world problem and improves the understanding of a situation - 2Advantages of a Mathematical Model-Quick and easy
-Simplify a complex situation
-Improve our understanding, as certain variables, can be changed
-Enable predictions
-Help provide control - 3Disadvantages of a Mathematical Model-Simplification of problem - doesn't include all aspects
-Will only work in certain situations - 4Stage 1 of Mathematical ModelReal world problem observed
- 5Stage 2 of Mathematical ModelMathematical Model is devised
- 6Stage 3 of Mathematical ModelMathematical Model used to make predictions about expected behaviour of real world problem
- 7Stage 4 of Mathematical ModelExperimental data collected from real world
- 8Stage 5 of Mathematical ModelCompare predicted and observed outcomes
- 9Stage 6 of Mathematical ModelStatistical tests used to assess how well model describes the real world
- 10Stage 7 of Mathematical ModelMathematical Model is refined (if necessary) to improve the match of the predicted and observed outcomes
