B. Establishing a Presentation of 6 Function Machines

purpose for the Say: Mathematical relations can be represented by machines with an
lesson input and an output, and that the output is related to the input by some
rule.

Ask students which of these machines represent a function.

Guide questions.
1. Which of these machines, if you know the input , can you
determine a single or unique output? (expected answers: a, c,
d, and f of the presented function machines). Have the class
explain why. Ask why e) is not part of this list. Introduce the
term function to describe these machines.
2. Which of these machines, if the output is known, can you
determine a single or unique input? (The answers should be (d)
and (f).
3. Suppose we connect machine (a) to machine (c) such that the
output of (a) becomes the input of (c).
Say: Functions can often be used to model real-life situations.
Present to the class the problem below.
 Give a function C that can represent the cost of buying x meals,
if one meal costs ₱40.
Solution: Since each meal costs ₱40, then the cost function is
C ( x)  40 x .

C. Presenting examples Proceed to show another scenario as shown below:

of the new lesson  One hundred meters of fencing is available to enclose a rectangular
area next to a river. Give a function A that can represent the area
that can be or enclosed, in terms of x. (See TG, Example 7 for the
illustration on p. 8)
Solution: The area of the rectangular enclosure is A  xy . We

will write this as a function of x. Since only 100 m of fencing is

100  x
y  50  0.5 x
available, then x  2 y  100 or 2 . Thus,
A( x)  x(50  0.5 x)  50 x  0.5 x 2 .
D. Discussing new Show the problem of piecewise functions.
concepts and
practicing new skills Say: Some situations can only be described by more than one formula,
#1 depending on the value of the independent variable.
1. A user is charged ₱300 monthly for a particular mobile plan, which
includes 100 free text messages. Messages in excess of 100 are charged
₱1 each. Represent the amount a consumer pays each month as a
function of the number of messages m sent in a month.
Ask: Is it possible to describe the problem with one formula or
equation only? Justify your answer.
Expected answer: No, there are 2 formulas or equations that could be
derived from the problem. The equations are said to be functions. If we
put these functions as one function, it describes a piecewise function.
We can describe such function as a function defined on a sequence of
intervals.

Solution: Let t (m) represent the amount paid by the consumer each
month. It can be expressed by the piecewise function.

t ( m)  
300  m ifm  100

concepts and
practicing new skills 1. Contaminated water is subjected to a cleaning process. The
#2 concentration of
pollutants is initially 10 mg per liter of water. If the cleaning process
can reduce the pollutant by 5% each hour, define a function that
can represent the concentration of pollutants in the water in terms of
the number of hours that the cleaning process has taken place.
Solution.
After 1 hour, the concentration of pollutants is (10)*(0.95). After
2 hours, it is this value, times 0.95, or [(10)*(0.95)](0.95) = 10(0.95)2.
In general, after t hours, the concentration is C(t) = (10)(0.95)t mg per
liter of water.
2. Squares of side x are cut from each corner of an (8in x 5in)
rectangle (see figure), so that its sides can be folded to make a
box with no top. Define a
function in terms of x that can represent the volume of this box.

Solution.

The length and width of the box are 8 –2x and 5 –2x, respectively. Its
height is x. Thus, the volume of the box can be represented by the
function
V(x) = (8 –2x)(5 –2x)x = 40x – 26 x 2+ 4 x 3 .

in daily living a. A relation but not a function
Example: Destination versus tricycle fare: For P15 you can go
anywhere within 3 kilometers.
b. a linear function
Example: Distance versus time if traveling at a constant speed
H. Making Ask: How can we represent real-life situations as functions?
Generalizations and
abstractions about Functions can often be used to model real situations. Identifying an
the lesson appropriate functional model will lead to a better understanding of
various phenomena.
I.Evaluating learning Divide the class into 5 groups, preferably with 6-8 members. Then, call
two group volunteers to discuss their answers. A rubric may be used to
check the groups’ answers. ( See attached Worksheet for the Evaluation
and Rubric for assessing group performance).
J. Additional Activities  For remediation, assign learners to pick 2 problems that they
for application or did not work on in the previous activity found in part I. Peer
remediation tutoring is desired for this purpose.
 For enrichment, assign Seatwork 5 on p. 11. The same rubric
should be used for grading the learners’ outputs.

Answer the following problems.

a. The fee for hiring a guide to explore a cave P700. A guide can only take care of maximum
of 4 persons, and additional guides can be hired as needed. Represent the cost of hiring guides
as a function of the number of tourists who wish to explore the cave.

b. The cost of hiring a caterer service to serve food for a party is P150 per head for 20 persons
or less, P130 per head for 21 to 50 persons, and P110 per head for 51 to 100 persons. For 100
or more persons, the cost is at P100 per head. Represent the total cost as piecewise function of
the number of attendees of the party.

c. A videoke machine can be rented for P1000 for 3 days, but for the fourth day onwards, an
additional cost of P400 per day is added. Represent the cost of renting a videoke machine as a
piecewise function of the number of days it is rented.

ANSWER of Supplemental Activity (Developing Mastery)

A. The relations fand gare functions because each value yin Yis unique for a specific

value of x. The relation his not a function because there is at least one element in X

for which there is more than one corresponding y-value. For example, x=7

corresponds to y= 11 or 13. Similarly, x=2 corresponds to both y=17 or 19.

A relation between two sets of numbers can be illustrated by a graph in the Cartesian

plane , and that a function passes the vertical line test.

B. The domains for the relations are as follows:
