Also, pretty much every fancy formula you learn in Stats 100/ AP stats that looks weird but is very useful, can be derived and proved using calculus. Without calculus you just have to take it on faith, and may not have as intuitive an understanding of why it's true and what the significance of the terms is. The same is the case in basic physics. No, V does not = IR, nor does F = ma. That's the simplification they tell us so they can explain a simplified version to us. In fact, the correct equations have derivatives in them and thus are differential equations. Look, nobody needs calculus but nobody needs to read either. After all you could hire someone to read everything out loud to you. All knowledge is like this.
