Intercepts of
Rational
Functions
•At the end of this lesson, you are expected to:
•o represent real life situations using rational
functions; and
•o determine the zeroes and y-intercepts of
rational functions.
•Let’s start
with a review
about rational
function.
•Look at the graph
below. Can you point
out the zeroes and y-
intercepts of the given
rational function? Try it!
•What are ZEROES
and y-INTERCEPTS
of a Function?
Zeroes:

These are the values of x which make the function zero.

The real numbered zeroes are also x-intercepts of the


graph of the function.

y- Intercept:

The y-intercept is the function value when the value of x is


equal to 0.

(Versoza et al., General Mathematics Teaching Guide

Solution: (a) zeroes Since the zeroes or x-intercepts of a
rational function are the values of x that will make the
function zero. A rational function will be zero if its
numerator is zero. Therefore, the zeroes of a rational
function are the zeroes of its numerator.
Step 1: Take the numerator and equate it to zero. x - 3 =
0 Step 2: Find the value of x using Addition Property of
Equality, add +3 to both sides. x – 3 + 3 = 0 + 3 , simplify
x = 3 Therefore, 3 is a zero of f(x).
(a) zeroes To find the zeroes of this function, let’s equate the
numerator to zero. The zeroes of a rational function are the zeroes

Step 1: Take the numerator (𝑥2−3𝑥+2) and equate it to zero.


of its numerator.

𝑥2−3𝑥+2=0 Step 2: Find the value of x by factoring (x-2)(x-1) =0


Step 3: Equate each factor to zero and solve for x.

Lesson 11

Asymptotes
of Rational
Functions
At the end of this lesson, you are
expected to:

o differentiate horizontal and vertical


asymptotes; and

o determine the horizontal and vertical


asymptotes of rational functions.
•Asymptotes of Rational
Functions: Consider the
graph shown. Observe that
the graph approaches closer
and closer but never
touches an imaginary line.
Can you spot where that
imaginary line is? Draw a
broken line to locate that
line. I know you can do it!
What is an
ASYMPTOTE?
•An asymptote is a line that a curve approaches or gets
closer and closer to but never touches. It could be a
horizontal, vertical, or slanted line (Math is Fun 2020).

•*A rational function may or may not
cross its horizontal asymptote. If the
function does not cross the horizontal
asymptote y=b, then b is not part of the
range of the rational function.

PROBLEM SOLVING

Example 1: You want to join an


online calligraphy class. You will pay
an annual membership fee of Php
500.00, then Php 150.00 for each
class you go to. What is the average
cost per class if you go to 10 classes?
Step 1: Understand the Problem. Given: Php
500.00 - annual membership fee Php 150.00 -
payment per class you attend 10 classes -
