Why Math is Important!By: Abishai Schoenbein
Allen Glines: (you can accomplish good goals)“Math shows you that you can reach a
desirable result if you a follow a certain series of steps in a particular order, and complete each step without making an error.”
“A successful mathematician is blessed with complex problem-solving skills they can use in any avenue of life. “
Dr. Math: A lot of jobs require math.“There are actually thousands of different
jobs that require some knowledge of mathematics.”
“There are uses of mathematics in all the "hard" sciences, such as biology, chemistry, and physics; the "soft" sciences, such as economics, psychology, and sociology; engineering fields, such as civil, mechanical, and industrial engineering.”
Institute of Mathematical Sciences: Science and math go hand in hand,“The study of mathematics can lead to a
variety of exciting professional careers. Basic research, engineering, finance, business, and government service are among the opportunities open to those with mathematical training.”
“Many laboratories, both government and private, maintain independent research staffs that include mathematicians.”
ConclusionThere are many different jobs in today's
society that require mathematics. Over 50 percent of job occupations require some sort of math, whether it be addition and subtraction, or algebra. Finally, math is used for everyday activities like grocery shopping and leaving tips. Math is a very important life skill no matter what you do in life. I feel that math is one of my most important classes that I take because it applies to so much in my life!
