What I’ve read online says that Vector art uses math to make the image scale better but isn’t ‘math’ used in Pixel art in, say, Photoshop as well? I’m having trouble wrapping my head around how the math might be different when creating a line in Photoshop vs Illustrator for example.

Pixel is not math in the same way. To simplify:
Photoshop art is a grid of color dots (pixels). It become blurry when enlarged because you are just turning one colored dot into four dots of the same color.
With vector art, there are no colored dots. There are points with lines connecting them, and the space in-between is colored in. The lines are drawn by the math formulas, so they are not size-dependent.
