I feel like I learned a lot in math this year. It did take some time for me to understand the concept of logarithms, however. The process of learning a math concept like exponents and then translating that knowledge into logarithms took me a long time to grasp. It set me a bit behind from the rest of the class but I looked up logarithms on my own and asked for help on the subject and now I feel more confident in my understanding.
Something extremely interesting for me was the Law of Large Numbers. The law states that if the same event has a consistent probability of happening that, no matter how many trials are done, the average amount of times the event occurred will always equal the likelihood of its probability. For example, if a coin is flipped, it has a 50/50 chance of landing on heads or tails. Eventually, the graph would show the outcomes of all the coinflips performed and it would be a steady straight line.
Expression in mathematics looks neat and organized as well as easy to understand when explained. It is usually a problem or an example of a problem with numbers and/or variables that is or can be translated into a formula. It sounds very basic and easy to understand, however it is also a very important building block to build off of and expand our understanding of math concepts. Overall, it is very important and necessary part of moving ahead in math.
My future is going to have a lot of mathematical components, especially if I go into environmental studies or marketing. It requires a lot of statistics analysis as well as general calculations and I will be very invested in learning more to expand my mathematical knowledge.
