Lesson1: Representing Real-Life Situations Using Function

A relation is any set of ordered pairs. The set of all A function is a relation or rule of
first elements of the ordered pairs is called the correspondence between two elements
domain of the relation, and the set of all second (domain and range) such that each element in
elements is called the range. the domain corresponds to exactly one
*Set A, B, C, and D below are examples of relation. element in the range.

VERTICAL LINE TEST: a method that is used to determine whether a given graph of relation is a function or not.
If your vertical line intersects the graph only once, then the relation is a function.
If your vertical line intersects the graph more than once at any point, the relation is not a function.

-The graphs below represent functions (linear, quadratic, and cubic functions respectively).

-The graphs below are not functions

A and C are graphs of


functions while B and D are
not because they do not
pass the vertical line test.

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.
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 x + 3 = y or f(x) = x+ 3 where f(x) = y.

Types of Functions

Lesson2: Evaluating Functions


To evaluate a function is to replace (substitute) any variable with its given number or expression.

put the substituted values inside


parentheses (), so you don't make
mistakes.

Lesson 3: Operation on Functions


Objectives: Operations on functions are similar to operations on
numbers.
• Define operations on functions.
• Identify the different operations Adding, subtracting, and multiplying two or more functions
on functions. together will result in another function. Dividing two
• Perform addition, subtraction, functions together will also result in another function if the
multiplication, division, and denominator or divisor is not the zero function. Lastly,
composition of functions. composing two or more functions will also produce another
function.

SAVE FOR A CAUSE: Thru inspiration instilled by their parents and realization brought by Covid-
19pandemic experience, Neah and Neoh, both Senior High School students decided to save money for a
charity cause. Neah has a piggy bank with ₱10.00 initial coins inside. She then decided to save ₱5.00 daily
out of her allowance. Meanwhile, Neoh who also has a piggy bank with₱ 5.00 initial coin inside decided
to save ₱3.00 daily.

Suppose that we combine the


piggy banks of the two
students, the resulting is
another piggy bank. It’s just
like adding two functions will
result to another function.
