Chapter 1 - Lesson 1 - Functions As Models

The document provides an overview of key concepts about functions that are covered in a General Mathematics lesson for senior high school students. It defines what a function is as a mathematical relation between an input and an output related by a rule. It presents different ways functions can be represented, including as a mapping diagram, graph, or model of a real-life situation. Examples are given of representing scenarios involving student grades, juice purchases, and gas consumption as functional relationships. The lesson also covers piecewise functions and gives examples of representing costs as functions of usage.

LESSON 1
FUNCTIONS AS MODELS
Relation

◦It is a set of ordered pairs.

Example:

൛ −2, 10 , −1, −7 , 0, −4 , 1, −1 , (2, −2)ሽ


What is Function?

Function is a mathematical
relation within two objects: an
input and output, and that
the output is related to the
input by some rule.
Basic Concept and Representation of
Function

A function 𝒇 from set A (input) to set


B (output) is a rule of
correspondence that assigns to each
element x in the set A exactly one
element y in the set B
Basic Concept and Representation of
Function

Each x can have only one y, but it


CAN be the same y as another x
gets assigned to.
Function can be represented in different
ways.
Which of the following relations are
functions?
Function can be represented in different
ways.
Determine whether the relationship given in
the mapping diagram is a function.
Function can be represented in different
ways.
FUNCTION as
GRAPH
Which of the following graphs can be
graphs of functions?
Function can be represented in different
ways.
Function can be represented in different
ways.
Representing Real life situations using
functions.

Function can be seen in real life


situations and is very useful in almost all
walks of life, as it interpret these
scenarios in mathematical models.
Representing Real life situations using
functions.

Independent variable (x)

Dependent variable (y)


Representing Real life situations using
functions.

DEPENDENT VARIABLE

INDEPENDENT VARIABLE
Consider the scenario below and try to
relate it the concept of function.
Scenario A
STEM 11-St. Augustine students of SJC
list down their grades in General
Mathematics. Basically, each student
has only one grade for General
Mathematics, but more than one
student can get the same grade.
Consider the scenario below and try to
relate it the concept of function.
Consider the scenario below and try to
relate it the concept of function.
Scenario B
In our school canteen, all kinds of juices are worth
Php 5.00 each cup. There is juice, pineapple juice,
guava juice, chocolate juice, buko juice, and many
more to choose from.

Ana wants to buy 2 different juices, while Brenda


wants to buy 3 different juices.
Consider the scenario below and try to
relate it the concept of function.
Sample Real-Life Scenario
Use the guide questions below in representing each real-
life scenario as a function model.

a. Which represents as the input 𝑥?


b. Which represents as the output 𝑓(𝑥)?
c. How will you represent the scenario into a
function model?
Sample A

◦ Mr. Anniz noticed that his motorcycle


consumes 1 liter of gasoline from his
home going to Vista Mall which is 15
kilometers apart.

◦ Represent the total number of


kilometers K(x) in an x number of liters.
Sample B
◦ Romer transferred a three - leaf
tomato tree from a pot to the soil.
The next morning, Romer was
surprised to see three new leaves
have sprouted. The following day,
he expected the tree to have 9
leaves, and he was right.
Sample C
◦ A car for hire can be rented for 3000
pesos with an additional daily rate of
1500 pesos. Represent the total rental
fee 𝑅(𝑥) in an 𝑥 number of days.
Sample D

◦Represent the daily total


earnings 𝑇(𝑥) of an online
video site considering the 𝑥
number of views that costs 5
pesos per view.
Try This!
Represent the presented real-life situation as function models.

◦ Through the realization in the COVID-19 experiences,


Kevin and Lena both Senior High School students started
savings for charity cost.

◦ Kevin sells paintings he made while Lena sells face masks.


Kevin has an initial savings of P30.00 pesos and saves
P15.00 every day. While Lena initially saves P40 pesos and
saves P10.00 pesos every day.

◦ Represent the TOTAL EARNINGS E(x) in an x number of


days.
Piecewise Function

A piecewise function is
a function made from
different functions
over different intervals
Sample Problem #1

◦Lara bought a P150 load good for a month. It


includes 100 free text messages. Messages in
excess of this charged P1 each.

◦Give a function c(m) representing the monthly


cost corresponding to the number of text
messages m
Sample Problem #2
◦ In this time of pandemic, some businesses took action to adapt
to the new normal. Boyet, a computer shop owner, came up with
an ingenious solution which he called, “Rent a Comp”.

◦ The concept is to lend a computer, which is packed with a


device that computes or counts the time of usage, to a
costumer. The renter needs to pay an initial of Php 600.00 for a
total of 500 hours, and an additional amount of 2 pesos for the
excess time per hour.
ROMANS 12:4

For just as we have many members in one


body and all the members do not have the
same function.
