Absolutely.
Mathematics is a philosophy of absolutes.
Absolutes do not exist in reality, that makes it a philosophy.

Mathematics is an abstract way of approaching towards targets, in the field of logic similar to deductive logic. But as a subject of knowledge, it is not philosophy.
We can say, all philosophers have mathematical way of thinking.
So mathematics is the one that helps you to be a philosopher.

yes- just a very mainstream philosophy. it is a controlled system marked by a group of accepted theories and a group of texts used by a group of people to understand the world (much like all other philosophies)

Mathematics is the father of science. That means every science subject is related with Mathematics.

Philosophy, to my way of thinking, is a high level account, pretty much at CEO level. Mathematicians are humble folk who seek only to provide some of the tools for the technicians in the firm.

As philosophy is the pursuit of general knowledge, yes.

there are quite a number of ways to answer your question. a number of them involve cognition - the way we know things. to explore this field, you might try doing a search on the philosophy of science.
my basic answer to you is yes. this question has been explored and debated for thousands of years.
good luck!

yes it is because philosophy is the pursuit of wisdom and knowledge and math pursuits it just as well
