III. Procedure
1. Review
-Review the Polya’s Method in solving problems.
Steps: 1. Explore/Understand the problem carefully. (Guided question: How can we say
that we understand a given problem?)
2. Plan the solution.
3. Solve.
4. Check the solution.
(Guided question: Which step do you think is the most important step in problem solving?)
2. Presentation (I Do It)
-Present objectives.
Problem 1. Cesar charges 25.00 for every page of encoding work. In addition, he charges 8.00
per page of printed output. Write a function that will provide the amount for encoded pages and
printed work. How much will Cesar charge for 33-page encoding printing work?
3. Guided Practice (We Do It)
-Solve (By row)
Problem 2. A proposed train fare would charge 20.00 for the first 5 km of travel and 0.75 for
each additional kilometers over the proposed fare.
a) Find the fare function f(x) where x represents the number of kilometers traveled.
b) Find the proposed fare for a distance of 45 km.
Solution: 1. Understand the problem carefully.
2. Plan the solution.
Let x be the number of kilometers traveled over 5 kilometers
f(x)=20, if 0<x≤5
f(x)=20+0.75x
3. Solve the problem.
If x=45km,
f(45)=20+0.75(40)=20+30=50
4. Check the solution.
f(45)=50 or “The proposed fare for a distance of 45 km is 50.00.”
4. Group Practice (They Do It)
-Solve (By Pair)
Problem 3. A mall charges 25.00 for the first hour or a fraction of an hour as parking fee. An
additional 25.00 will be charged for every additional hour, or a fraction of an hour of parking.
a. Write a function rule for the problem.
b. How much will be charged a car owner who parked his or her car from 7 am to 1:30 pm?
25, 𝑖𝑓 𝑥 ≤ 1ℎ𝑜𝑢𝑟
Answer: a) 𝑓(𝑥) = { .
25 + 25𝑥, 𝑖𝑓 𝑥 > 1 𝑘𝑚
b) 𝑓(6) = 25 + 25(6) = 25 + 150 = 175.
