Explain your answer. @ Modelling with quadratics A mathematical model is 2 mathematical description of a real-life situation. Mathematical models use the language and tools of mathematics to represent and explore real-life patterns and relationships, and to predict what is going to happen next. Models can be simple or complicated, and their results can be approximate or exact. Sometimes a model is only valid under certain circumstances, or for a limited range of inputs. You will earn more about how models involve simplifications and assumptions in Statistics and Mechanics. Quadratic functions can be used to model and explore a range of practical contexts, including, projectile motion. 32Quadratics A spear is thrown over level ground from the top of a tower.
