If you’ve read a math textbook, you probably know what they’re talking about here. Stuff like “Bob throws a coin off a bridge and notices that the coin’s path is a parabolic shape similar to that of the equation y = x² + 2x +4” just make me go “who really does that in real life?” It just seems silly that a person would be able to come up with an equation for something as obscure as the number of squirrels seen within the course of a week.
