description of a system using mathematical concepts and language
A mathematical model is a description of a real-world system or situation expressed using mathematical concepts and language. It matters because it allows us to understand, predict, and analyze how systems behave by translating complex situations into equations and formulas that can be studied precisely.

A mathematical model is an abstract description of a concrete system using mathematical concepts and language. The process of developing a mathematical model is termed mathematical modeling. Mathematical models are used in many fields, including applied mathematics, natural sciences, social sciences and engineering. In particular, the field of operations research studies the use of mathematical modelling and related tools to solve problems in business or military operations. A model may help to characterize a system by studying the effects of different components, which may be used to make predictions about behavior or solve specific problems.
