lottie2020 Posted August 22, 2018 Report Share Posted August 22, 2018 So I'm trying to come up with a topic for my SL math IA and I'm currently working with the idea of modelling the population decrease of nesting leatherback sea turtles in Las Baulas. I plan on creating an equation to predict the further decrease of the population if humans do not intervene, and possibly seeing what type of graph this population matches. The only issue is I can't decide if it is more of a science IA or a math IA. Any thoughts?? Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
kw0573 Posted August 23, 2018 Report Share Posted August 23, 2018 I like the math IA because the model could be complex and you can discuss a lot of math (note: not discuss a lot of data). Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hey! Could you please clarify my understanding about the models in math? I am doing something about SIR Model and I am struggling. Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
