Mathematics is not better than English.

Okay, mathematics is better than English, don't believe me? That's okay, read some of my reasons. Just imagine, you wake up, and life is without maths... wait! Sorry to ruin it for you, albeit, just think this, you wake up, your mum asks you, "How many pieces of toast would you like?", "uhh... mum, there is no maths, therefore I can't tell you", okay then, lets go before that, you are getting out of bed, right before you touch the floor, how many slippers do you have? Wait.. no counting, because no math. Now imagine life without English... wait! I can't speak English, but that's okay because I'll just speak a different language. See, some countries need more English than others but all countries need maths. What I'm trying to say is that life without mathematics is impossible, you can't stop counting, and well, that means you can't stop maths, and because of this math is better than English. Mathematics is also a subject that is older than English. People can't survive without maths, but people can survive without English, as there are non-English speaking people in this world. Therefore mathematics is better than English. What I'm trying to say here is that math is a fundamental subject in our everyday lives. Without math we would be no where. Without math, there won't be any English, just think about it, no math, life is zero, zero in fact is related to mathematics. Mathematics enables us to think logically. Which brings me on my next point. Mathematics consists of two major types of reasonings. Deductive Reasoning and Inductive Reasoning. Well, for those who don't what what these two are, deductive reasoning is when a researcher works from the more general information to the more specific. For example: 'Every day, I leave for work in my car at eight o"clock. Every day, the drive to work takes 45 minutes I arrive to work on time. Therefore, if I leave for work at eight o"clock today, I will be on time.' This is a major way of how we think, now in mathematics it can be shown as: 2x - 1 = 9 2x = 10 therefore x = 5 now, this is an example of deductive reasoning. Inductive reasoning works the opposite way, moving from specific observations to broader generalizations and theories. An example of inductive reasoning can be seen in this set of statements: Today, I left for work at eight o"clock and I arrived on time. Therefore, every day that I leave the house at eight o"clock, I will arrive to work on time. This isn't necessarily right, but we use it everyday. In mathematics it can be shown as, say if you get an endless amount of questions, like the math one just above this, then you say, "okay, so, if I use this method to work it out, I will get the right answer." We use these kind of reasonings everyday, now, my point is that imagine if we didn't use these reasonings everyday, it would be impossible to live, but, if we didn't have English...? Mathematics is better than English, I mean, we need more math than English, as I proved to you with the last two reasons. For a final point, mathematics is also a form of entertainment, as showed by this video, (please watch). In this video you see how in the warm up, he does a trick, using mathematics, he threw a paper ball at the cameraman, who then throws it to someone else, randomly, who picks a random number. Then Owen, does he's trick, as showed, showing mathematics as a form of entertainment, I don't think you can do this with English? Then Owen, uses advanced probability to estimate the answer to random questions to random strangers in the audience, and, in the end of the video he shows how he got the right answer, again, showing mathematics as a form of entertainment. Now, in this video, he didn't use 'magic', but probability, which allowed people to have another perspective of mathematics. I don't think English has the power to entertain us in this form, now does it? Now, to conclude with an ending reason, today's society needs mathematics, whether it is a 13 year old, like me, studying calculus, or a mathematician trying to prove a theorem wrong, or simply, using basic elementary school mathematics in order to do an everyday task, such as measurement. For us, to have an easy life ahead of us, we need to study mathematics, most jobs require this subject, yes, English is an important subject, but there are non-English speaking places in this world, they go on just fine, but without math, they're not going to get very far. Math is better than English for these reasons. We need math more than English, and we use math more than English. Thank you. Also, apologies for any mistakes, as I was rushing and only spend 20 minutes on this, and well, because of that I may have made stupid errors.
