 Determine functions and relations

 Illustrate functions through


mapping diagrams, sets and graphs
 Represent real-life situations using
functions
What have you
remembered
about relations
and functions?
 A relation is any set of ordered pairs. The set of all first
elements of the ordered pairs is called the domain of
the relation, and the set of all second elements is called
the range.
 A function is a relation or rule of correspondence
between two elements (domain and range) such that
each element in the domain corresponds to exactly one
element in the range.
Given the following ordered pairs, which relations are functions?
We can also identify a function given a diagram. On the following mapping
diagrams, which do you think represent functions?
How about if the
given are graphs
of relations, can
you identify
which are
functions?
• A relation between two sets of numbers can be illustrated
by graph in the Cartesian plane, and that a function passes
the vertical line test.
• A graph of a relation is a function if any vertical line drawn
passing through the graph intersects it at exactly one point.
• In Mathematics, we can represent functions in different
ways. It can be represented through words, tables,
mappings, equations and graphs.
Functions as Representations
of Real-Life Situations
 Functions can often be used to model real-life situations. Identifying an
appropriate functional model will lead to a better understanding of various
phenomena.

 The Function Machine


Function can be illustrated as a machine
where there is the input and the output. When
you put an object into a machine, you expect
a product as output after the process being
done by the machine. For example, when you
put an orange fruit into a juicer, you expect
an orange juice as the output and not a grape
juice. Or you will never expect to have two
kinds of juices - orange and grapes.
 You have learned that function can be represented by
equation. Since output (y) is dependent on input (x), we
can say that y is a function of x.

 For example, if a function machine always adds three (3)


to whatever you put in it. Therefore, we can derive an
equation of or where .
Let’s try the following real-life situation.

1. If height is a function of age , give a function that can represent the height
of a person in age, if every year the height is added by .
2. . If distance is a function of time , give a function that can represent the
distance a car travels in time, if every hour the car travels .
3. Give a function that can represent the amount of battery charge of a cellular
phone in h hour, if of battery was loss every hour.
4. Squares of side are cut from each corner of a in rectangle, so that its sides
can be folded to make a box with no top. Define a function in terms of that
can represent the volume of the box.
Solutions:

A.Since every year, the height is added by 2 inches, then the height function is
B.Since every hour, the car travels 60 kilometers, therefore the distance
function is given by
C.Since every hour losses 12% of the battery, then the amount of battery
function is
D.The length and width of the box are and , respectively. Its height is . Thus,
the volume of the box can be represented by the function:
Piecewise-Defined
Functions
 There are functions that requires more than one formula in order to obtain the
given output. There are instances when we need to describe situations in
which a rule or relationship changes as the input value crosses certain
boundaries. In this case, we need to apply the piecewise function.

 A piecewise function is a function in which more than one formula is used


to define the output. Each formula has its own domain, and the domain of
the function is the union of all these smaller domains. We notate this idea
like this:
A user is charged ₱250.00 monthly for a particular
mobile plan, which includes 200 free text messages.
Messages in excess of 200 are charged ₱1.00 each.
Represent the monthly cost for text messaging using the
function , where m is the number of messages sent in a
month.

𝑡 ( 𝑚 )= 250 ,0
{<𝑚 ≤ 200
¿ 50+𝑚 ,𝑚> 200
A certain chocolate bar costs ₱50.00 per piece.
However, if you buy more than 5 pieces, they
will mark down the price to ₱48.00 per piece.
Use a piecewise function to represent the cost in
terms of the number of chocolate bars bought.
The cost of hiring a catering service to serve food for a
party is ₱250.00 per head for 50 persons or less,
₱200.00 per head for 51 to 100 persons, and ₱150.00
per head for more than 100. Represent the total cost as a
piecewise function of the number of attendees to the
party.
