Mathematical models also are emerging within the biological and medical sciences.
Biologists have identified the body tissues and substances, which are involved during this
process, but the precise rules of the method, are only barely understood. an easy mathematical
model of the renal process shed some light on the formation of urine and on decisions made by
the kidney on whether, for instance, to excrete an outsized volume of diluted urine or a little
volume of concentrated urine.
Mathematics in Agriculture:
Fertilizers are needed to reap products in optimum quantity. so as to supply optimum levels to
the plant of concern, you ought to know levels of elements available in your soil. Nitrogen and
phosphorus are two fertilizers that ought to be supplied by fertilizers. NH4 (ammonium ion) plus
NO3 (nitrate) increased wheat yields 7 to 47% in 14 studies. Animal manures and other sorts of
organic waste could also be important sources of nitrogen for optimum plant growth.
Career in Business Mathematics

has to have good oral and written communication skills as business mathematicians need to work
on teams, collate research and be in contact with clients.
Since all corporations require managing their money and business many mathematicians find
employment in these fields. Mathematicians follow a logical thinking;follow a problem-solving

Role In Business
Mathematics is an important part of managing business. Business and mathematics go hand in
hand this is because business deals with money and money encompasses everything in itself.
There is a need for everyone to manage money as some point or the other to take decisions which
requires everyone to know mathematics. Business mathematics is used by commercial
enterprises to record and manage business operations.
Role in Accounting:
Commercial organizations use mathematics in accounting, inventory management, marketing,
sales forecasting, and financial analysis. It helps you know the financial formulas, fractions;
measurements involved in interest calculation, hire rates, salary calculation, tax calculation etc.
which help complete business tasks efficiently. Business mathematics also includes statistics and
provides solution to business problems.
The applications of mathematics to science are simply ubiquitous, to say the least, and more so in
fields like physics, chemistry, and astronomy. As such students who find it hard to master basic
arithmetic skills might have an even harder time trying to read the scientific graphs and charts
that are used in the field of science.
Price determination
When you have successfully determined the costs, the next task is to price the products correctly
so that it generates right amount of cash flows for future requirements of the business. Charging
the correct selling price would ensure that the product remains profitable.
Profit Measurement
These require determining the net profit by subtracting the operating costs from the total amount
of sales/revenue during a period of time. What also needs to deducted are the tax, depreciation,
discount expenses. This helps to find out if the products are being charged enough to continue
the business operations and expand.
