Economics has this connection to mathematics: It is a jumbled heap of beliefs and statistics. Our beliefs tell us which numbers to add up, and which to ignore.

Footnote: For the past 50 years, economic theories--principles, practices, and predictions--have been described in highly refined mathematical terms. Economic concepts that were formerly stated in words are now codified in mathematical formulas. For example, Malthus and Ricardo described "game theory" discursively. Subsequently, economists devised mathematical explanations and formulas to explain and refine those concepts.
