One of the aspects of Mathematics in the modern world is Mathematics for prediction.

Prediction comes from the word itself ‘pre’ means “before” and ‘diction’ which is a way that has

to do with talking. So a prediction is a statement about the future. It is also what someone thinks

will happen, and something to do with forecast.

When prediction comes to the subject of how mathematics is used as the basis for making predictions, they simply pull stateme

box. Usually their predictions falter because they are not based on a statistical analysis of data. Predictions without a basis in m

more than guessing and guessing is not reliable.

According to Math Worksheets Center, when we say predictions we are not speaking about guessing of trying to search for an a

The odds are, however, overwhelming that you would be wrong the vast majority of the time. So, it becomes important to actua

component that makes predictions more reliable.

As studied by Jhon in Models in Mathematics (2016), mathematical model looks like when discussion of the “tipping buc
park” system. Recall that here, we had a bucket held slightly off-center on an axle with water flowing into the bucket

Periodically, the bucket would become unstable, tip, spill the contained water, and then return to the upright position
In this case, there is less mystery and less of a calling for an explanation. We can see that the system is mechanica

Predictions in mathematics are the vectors of values that the dependent variables would

take on. As stated by Jhon Barnes, a math tutor with background of statistics and science, he said

that in mathematics for prediction, the vector of values that the dependent would take on is if the

independent variables and the transforming function were known exactly and with perfect

correctness and also, if the transforming function was entirely sufficient to explain the whole

variance. He noted that some of the dependent variables might be statistical moments of other

dependent variables; for example, if we asserted that some function f(a,b,c), where a, b, and c

were all integers from 1 to 5, predicted x, we could choose to have our prediction vector be of

length 127, made up of values for all 125 permutations plus the mean and the variance. Barnes

added that the difference between predicted and actual values is that the vector of residuals,

which are normally non-zero due to measurement errors and some specification errors.

Moreover, they work in the sense that predictions are based upon a careful analysis of patterns

which are essentially recurring events. Patterns can be found in languages, sciences and even the

arts. The key to being recognize patterns can provide the basis for us to later make predictions

based on our observation of the repetition of patterns and then making a subsequent prediction

based on the data.
