Mathematics 8 First Summative Examination
General Direction:
1 You are not allowed to use CALCULATORS.
2 Items with erasures will automatically mark as wrong.
3 Always show your solution/s if there is/are any. Items (which need solutions especially
solving) answered without solutions are automatically mark as wrong.
4 Should there be questions, ask the proctor.
5 Always follow directions.
I. MATCHING TYPE: Match column A with Column B. Write the letter of the correct answer on
the space provided before each number. Show all solution/s if there is/are any.

9. Juan dela Cruz wants to enclose a rectangular plot with 400 ft. of fencing material. What should be the
dimensions of the area if the enclosed plot is to be as large as possible? What is the largest area? Sketch the
graph.
10. The Marikina shoe company will produce a special-style shoe if the order is large enough to provide
reasonable profit. To produce special-style, the company incurs a fixed cost of Php 10, 000 for the production
set-up. The variable cost is Php 30 per pair and each pair sells for Php 80. Find the expression for profit 𝑃. Sketch
the graph.
11. A manufacturing company determined that their profit is a function P(u) of the number of units they
produce. It can be calculated as 𝑃(𝑢) = 75𝑢 − 15000. If the company wants to earn a profit of ₱120000, how
many units should they produce? (Use inverse function). Sketch the graph.
12. Graph the function 𝑓 (𝑥 ) = (𝑥 + 1)(𝑥 − 4), does 𝑓 −1 (𝑥)? If it does find 𝑓 −1 (𝑥) and determine whether 𝑓 −1 (𝑥 ) is
a function.
