Representing Real-life Situations
1 Using Rational Functions
Let’s Recall
Let’s Explore
Example 1
1. Represent the speed of a runner as a function of the time it takes to run 100
meters in the track, then
a) construct a table of values for the speed of a runner against different run
times.
b) determine the behavior of a function (whether it isa smooth curve or a
straight line).
SUGGESTION: Use the current men's world record 100- meter dash.
Solution
𝑑
We can use the structure of the formula 𝑠 = relating speed, distance and
𝑡
time to represent the function since the speed of a runner depends on the time it
takes the runner to run 100 meters.
Let x represent the time it takes the runner to run 100 meters. Then the
speed can be represented as a function 𝑠(𝑥) as follows:
100
𝑠(𝑥) =
𝑥
a) Table of Values
Since the current men's world record (as of October 2015) for the 100-meter
dash is 9.58 seconds set by Jamaica's Usain Bolt in 2009. We start our table of
values at 10 seconds.
Let x be the run time and 𝑠(𝑥) be the speed of runner in meters per second,
where
3
100
𝑠(𝑥) = . The table of values for run times from 10 seconds to 20
𝑥
seconds is as follows:
𝑥 10 12 14 16 18 20
𝑠(𝑥) 10 8.33 7.14 6.25 5.56 5
b) Graph
From the table, plot the following ordered pairs ( x, s(x)) on a Cartesian
plane:
B(10,10) C(12, 8.33)
D(14 , 7.14 ) E(16 , 6.25 )
F(18 , 5.56) G(20 , 5)
Example 2 𝑥
A fence is to enclose a rectangular vegetable farm
with an area of 400 square meters. If 𝑥 is the length of
one side of this fence, find a function 𝑃(𝑥) representing 𝐴 = 𝑥𝑦 = 400 𝑦
the perimeter of the fencing material required. Find the
perimeter of the fence if one side has length 10 meters
and 50 meters.

𝑃(𝑥) = Write the function in simplified form.

If 𝑥 = 10

If 𝑥 = 50

𝑃(50) = = 116 𝑚.

200𝑡 2 +20,000𝑡
per week after 𝑡 weeks of production is approximated by 𝐶(𝑡) = ,
𝑡 2 +10𝑡+25
0 ≤ 𝑡 ≤ 50.
a. Find the number of computers it produced during the first week.
b. Find the number of computers it produced during the seventh week.

Let’s Elaborate
The above examples are among the rational function models that occur
naturally such as velocity as a function of travel time, finding the perimeter as a
function of its side, and production of work as a function of length of time .
A rational function is a function of the form
The range of a rational function is sometimes easier to find by first finding the
inverse of the function and determining its domain. Moreover, the range can be
found by comparing the leading term degree of numerator and denominator. If 𝑝(𝑥)
𝑎
and 𝑞(𝑥) are linear, then the range is { 𝑦 | 𝑦 ≠ 𝑛 }. If 𝑝(𝑥) is a , nonzero constant
𝑏𝑚
polynomial, 𝑞(𝑥) is linear, then the range is { 𝑦 | 𝑦 ≠ 0 }. If this does not work, the
best way is to graph the rational function.

The following are rational functions:
1 𝑥 𝑥2 + 3 3𝑥 2 −5𝑥−2
𝑓(𝑥) = , 𝑔(𝑥) = , ℎ(𝑥) = , 𝑖(𝑥) =
𝑥 𝑥 2 −4 𝑥−3 3𝑥 2 +7𝑥 + 2
Notice that the domain of most rational functions y includes all real numbers
except x-values that make the denominator zero. In order to get the values of x to
exclude from the domain, set the denominator equal to zero and solve for x.
The domain of 𝑓 is a set whose elements are all the real numbers except 0.
The domain of 𝑔 is all real numbers except 2 and -2. The domain of ℎ is all real
numbers except 3. Finally, the domain of the function 𝑖 is all real numbers except
1
− and -2.

Note: 0 in 𝑓, 2 and -2 in 𝑔, 3 in ℎ, and − and -2 in 𝑖 are restrictions on

The table below show how to distinguish among rational equations, rational
inequalities, and rational functions:
A rational equation or inequality can be solved for all x values that satisfy
the equation or inequality. Whereas we solve an equation or inequality, we do not
"solve" functions. Rather, a function (and, a rational function) expresses a
relationship between two variables (such as x and y) and can be represented by a
table of values or a graph.
Let’s Elaborate

To solve rational equations:
a. Eliminate denominators by multiplying each term of the equation by the least
common denominator.
b. Note that eliminating denominators may introduce extraneous solutions.
Check the solutions of the transformed with the original equation.

Rational Inequality
A rational inequality is composed of rational expressions combined with a ≤,
≥, <, 𝑜𝑟 > sign. Some examples of rational inequalities are
1 𝑥+2 1 2 5
≤ 7, ≤ 0, + > 1, and ≥ 0.
𝑥 𝑥−3 2 𝑥²−1 𝑥²−4𝑥−5
1. Set the inequality to zero. Transpose all terms on one side of the inequality.
2. Solve for the roots for both numerator and denominator by changing inequality
into an equation and mark these on a number line. Used a shaded circle to
indicate that the value is included in the solution set, and a hollow circle to
indicate that the value is excluded. These roots divide the number line into
intervals.
3. Choose test points along the interval and check whether substituting in the test
point would yield a positive or negative value which satisfies the inequality. If
satisfy the inequality, then they are part of the solution or else they are not part of
the solution.
4. The solutions can be written in either set builder notation or interval notation.
If the inequality is strict (<, >), the union of the open interval solution (𝑎, 𝑏) is
the solution set. If the inequality is non-strict (≤ , ≥ ), the solution set is the closed
interval [𝑎, 𝑏] except when a, or b is the root of the denominator at which it would
be an open interval.
The process for solving rational inequalities is nearly alike to the process for
solving polynomial inequalities with a few minor differences. As we recall that
multiplying positive number on both side of an inequality retains the direction of
the inequality and multiplying negative number on both side of inequality reverses
the direction of the inequality. But that won't work with by multiplying a variable.
It is not valid to multiply both sides of a rational inequality by a variable since the
sign of a variable is unknown.

2. Used a shaded circle for 𝑥 = 1 (a solution) and a hollow circle for 𝑥 = −1 (Not a
solution). The value 𝑥 = 0 is included in the solution since it makes the fraction
equal to zero, while x = -1 makes the fraction undefined.
Numerator Denominator
𝑥−1 = 0 𝑥 + 1 = 0
𝑥 = 1 𝑥 = −1
11
We need these numbers because these are the only numbers where the
rational expression may change sign.
-1 1
3. Choose test points in the intervals determined by -1 and 1 to determine the sign
𝑥−1
of in these intervals. Construct a table of signs as shown below.
𝑥+1
4. Since we are looking for the intervals where the fraction is positive or zero, the
solution intervals to be x < -1 and x ≥1. Plot these intervals on the number line.
-1 1
Thus, the solution set is {𝑥 ∈ ℝ|𝑥 < −1 𝑜𝑟 𝑥 ≥ 1}. It can also be written using
interval notation: (−∞, −1) ∪ [1, ∞).
3 1
Example 5: Solve: < .
𝑥−2 𝑥
Solution
a. We first transfer the rational expression on the right-hand side to the left-hand
side of the inequality and then find the least common denominator of the two
fractions.

b. The fraction will be zero for 𝑥 = −1 and undefined for 0 and 2. Plot on a number
line. Use hollow circles since these values are not part of the solutions.
-1 0 2
12
c. Construct a table of signs to determine the sign of the function in each interval
determined by -1, 0, and 2.
d. Summarize the intervals satisfying the inequality. Plot these intervals on the
number line.
-1 0 2
Thus, the solution set of the inequality is the set {𝑥 ∈ ℝ|𝑥 < −1 𝑜𝑟 0 < 𝑥 < 2}.

Jose lives about 30 kilometers from office. For one week, he keeps record of
time it takes him to go to the office as shown in Table A. He wanted to know his
average speed based on the time he recorded. Can you help him?

the results in the last column of Table A.
c. If t is time and s is the average speed, write the equation for a function that
contains Jose' average speed when the input is time.

The product of speed and time represents distance. If s is the speed, t is the
time, and d is the distance, then 𝑠 • 𝑡 = 𝑑. If both sides of the equation 𝑠 • 𝑡 = 𝑑 is

divided by 𝑡, we get 𝑠 = .

Definition
The zeroes of a function are the values of x which make the function zero.
The real numbered zeroes are also x -intercepts of the graph of the function.
An asymptote is a line that that the graph of a function gets close to but
does not touch.
1. Factor the numerator and the denominator of the rational function f if possible.
2. Identify the restrictions of the rational function f. (The restrictions are the
values of the independent variable that make the denominator equal to zero).
3. Identify the values of the independent variable that make the numerator equal
to zero.
4. The zeros of the rational function f are the values of the independent variable
that make the numerator zero but are not restrictions of the rational function f.

4. Identify the zero of 𝑓. 𝑥 = −2 will not be a zero of f because it is

In Lesson 1 and 2 you learned rational functions of the form
𝑝(𝑥)
𝑓(𝑥) =
𝑞(𝑥)
for which 𝑝(𝑥) and 𝑞(𝑥) are linear polynomials and 𝑞(𝑥) ≠ 0. In this lesson you
will learn rational functions for which p(x) and q(x) may be higher-degree
polynomials.
Let 𝑝(𝑥) and 𝑞(𝑥) be polynomials with no common factors other than 1. The

Example 3
Find the vertical, horizontal, and oblique asymptotes of the given functions.
State the domain and the range.
4 3𝑥² 8𝑥²−3𝑥+1
a) 𝑦 = b) 𝑦 = c. 𝑦 =
𝑥²+1 𝑥²−4 𝑥−2
Solution
The numerator has no zeros, so there is no x-intercept. The denominator has
no real zeros, so there is no vertical asymptote. The degree of the numerator (0) is
less than the degree of the denominator (2), so the line 𝑦 = 0 (the x-axis) is a
horizontal asymptote. The domain is all real numbers, and the range is 0 < 𝑦 ≤ 4.
18
Solution
The numerator has 0 as its only zero, so the graph has one x-intercept at (0,0).
The denominator can be factored as (𝑥 + 2)(𝑥 − 2), so the denominator has zeros -
2 and 2. This implies that the lines 𝑥 = −2 and 𝑥 = 2 are vertical asymptotes. The
degree of the numerator (2) is equal to the degree of the denominator (2), so the
𝑎
horizontal asymptote is 𝑦 = 𝑛 = 3.

Vertical Asymptote: 𝑥 = −2 , 𝑥 = 2
Horizontal Asymptote: 𝑦 = 3
Oblique Asymptote: None

Problem solving means engaging in a task for which the solution method is
not known in advance. Here, we will discuss worded problem solving on
inequalities and equations. Many problems which are stated in words must be
translated into mathematical symbols before they can be solved. To find a solution,
we must draw our knowledge and through this process, develop new mathematical
understanding.
Example 4
A box with a square base is to have a volume of 8 cubic meters. Let x be the
length of the side of the square base and h be the height of the box. What are the
possible measurements of a side of the square base if the height should be longer
than a side of the square base?
Solution
The volume of a rectangular box is the product of its width, length, and
height. The base of the box is square, its width and length are equal.
The variable x is the length of a side of a box and h is the height, the
equation becomes
8 = 𝑥2ℎ
8
ℎ= .
𝑥²
19
Since the height is greater than the width, h > x, the inequality is
8
>𝑥
𝑥²
8−𝑥³
>0
𝑥²
(2−𝑥)(𝑥 2 +2𝑥+4)
>0
𝑥²
b. The rational expression will be zero for x= 2 and undefined for x = 0. Since ℎ >
𝑥, 𝑥 = 2 must not include in the solution.
0 2
c. Construct a table of sign to determine the sign of the function in each
interval determined by 0 and 2.
d. The interval 0 < 𝑥 < 2 that satisfy the rational expression is the solution
set of the inequality. We reject the interval 𝑥 < 0 even if the expression is
positive since we only consider positive values of x for this problem.
0 2
Therefore, the length of the box should be less than 2 meters.
