As I begin learning abstract math its unclear how to apply it to the real world, or if what I'm learning is even improving my understanding of the topic at hand

>>17006880It's about not finding a use for finding one in one big picture at the end.
>>17006880math does whatever you make it do
>>17006880In my experience, math is mostly for people that want to create a video game with realistic physics. Ask a developer community.
>>17006880math does not describe the real world. But you can apply it to the real word. There are infinit possible equstions, some of them accuratly describe what is happening. E.g. you obseve something ist spreading out. You can describe that as a quadratic function. That does not mean that it IS a qudratic function. A quadraritic fuction can only be used to discribe that grow.
>>17006958Learning more math gives you more tools to describe. Somtimes math ist pure math and a real world thing to apply it to only apperes centuries later
>>17006958wtf
