LESSON 1: FUNCTIONS
AS MODEL
LEARNING OBJECTIVES
Distinguish the difference
between relation and function
5 FUNCTIONS 20XX
Example 1:
• Consider an electric fan as
a function machine. What
you do you think is the
input, the function, and
the output?
6 Presentation title 20XX
Answer
• Pressing any button on the electric fan
(assuming it is plugged into a power source)
will cause the fan blade to spin.
• Hence, the buttons are the input, the
spinning of the fan blade is the function, and
the wind it gives off is the output.

Example 2
• Consider the table of values below.
Determine the input, the function, and the
output.

What is a function?
Example:
Billy is associated to his friends: Gabriel, Jasmine, and
Luis. We can define a relation showing Billy’s association
or correspondence.

2 One-to-One Correspondence
Each value of the independent variable is
unique and is associated with a unique value of
the dependent variable
Example:

3 Many-to-One Correspondence
Two or more values of is associated with the
same value of

6 Function
It is a special kind of relation in which no two
distinct ordered pairs have the same first
element.
Example:
Miguel, Karlo, Bien and Anthony are paired to their
respective schools. Let us name this relation .

7 Vertical Line Test
It can be used to determine if a graph
represents a function.
Example:
The given graph on the right passes
the vertical line test since if we draw
an imaginary vertical line anywhere on
the graph, it would touch exactly one
point.

A user is charged P300 monthly for a
particular mobile plan, which includes 100
free text messages. Messages in excess of
100 are charged P1 each. Represent the
monthly cost for text messaging using the
function t(m), where m is the number of
messages sent in a month.
38 Presentation title 20XX
Solution
• The cost of text messaging can be expressed by
the piecewise function:
43
A certain chocolate bar costs P35.00
per piece. However, if you buy more
than 10 pieces, they will be marked
down to a price of P32.00 per piece.
Use a piecewise function to represent
the cost in terms of the number of
chocolate bars bought.

Example 4:
The cost of hiring a catering service to
serve food for a party is Php 150 per
head for 20 persons or less, Php 130
per head for 21 to 50 persons, and
Php 110 per head for 51 to 100
persons. For 100 or more persons, the
cost is at Php 100per head. Represent
the total cost as a piecewise function
of the number of attendees of the
party.

Example 1:
•Mark started selling snacks in the
nearby school. In one day he spends
₱200 for rent and ₱25 for each snack
item he prepares.

•His expenses in a single day can be
expressed as the function , where is
the number of items and is his daily
expenses in pesos. How much are his
expenses if he prepares 100 snack
items? 150 snack items?
