III. LEARNING TASKS

Preliminary Activities
1. Prayer
2. Checking of Attendance
3. Review of functions from Junior High School
a. How relations and functions are the same and how they are
different
b. The function as a machine
c. Functions and relations as a set of ordered pairs
d. Functions and relations as a mapping diagram
e. Functions as a graph in Cartesian Plane (Vertical Line Test)
f. Motivation: PICTURE ANALYSIS
i. Set of Babies and Set of Mothers
ii. Set of restaurants and set of cashiers
(Relationship of each set)

A. Activity
 Provide the “Warm-up” activity for students to complete independently.
Question: Do you have a different outfit that you wear each day of the
week? If so, you might be surprise to learn that the relationship between the
day of the week and your outfit represents a mathematical concept called a
function.
Activity 1: Outfit of the Day.
Fill out the table the different outfit that you possibly wear each day. Sunday,
Monday and Tuesday is done for you.
Day Outfit
Sunday Plain Skirt, Brown Blouse
Monday Blue Pants, White Blouse
Tuesday White Pants, Grey Blouse
Wednesday
Thursday
Friday
Saturday

B. Analysis
Based on the activity:
Well, we look to see what outfit to which Sunday is mapped, and we see that
you will be wearing your plain skirt with your brown blouse.
How about on Monday? Tuesday? Wednesday? Thursday? Friday? And
Saturday?

Represent your outfit of the day through a Mapping Diagram

Day Outfit
Sunday Plain Skirt, Brown Blouse
Monday Blue Pants, White Blouse
Tuesday White Pants, Grey Blouse
Wednesday
Thursday
Friday
Saturday

C. Abstraction
a. You have been familiar with functions involving numbers, and notice that
the function concepts can actually be applied to real world situations.
b. In mathematics, a a function is a relationship between two sets of
elements in which no element in the first set relates to more than one
element in the second. We can think of a function as a rule that takes
inputs from the first set and relates them to an element in the second set,
which is the output.
c. When it comes to recognizing functions in the real world, it is useful to
think of the term ''is a function of'' as ''is determined by''. You see, in a
function, no input can be related to two different outputs, otherwise,
 given the input, we couldn't determine the output. Therefore, the input
determines the output, so the output is a function of the input.
d. In mathematics, we represent functions in many different ways; we can
use words, tables, mappings, equations, and even graphs.
Let’s consider a couple more examples.

D. Application
a. If a state has a 6% sales tax, then we can use a function to calculate it. We
can use the following equation to represent this function:
T = 0.06x

If we purchase a product for x pesos, then to calculate the tax, we would

multiply x by 0.06, or the tax rate in decimal form. For instance, if you
bought a shirt for Ᵽ25, then you can calculate the sales tax by plugging in
25 for x.
T = 0.06(25) = 1.5

We see the sales tax is Ᵽ1.50.

We can also represent this function using our other representations.
Because our purchase price can be any number, we could never list all of
the inputs and outputs! Using a table or mapping wouldn't be the best
method in this situation, but we can easily represent it graphically by
simply graphing the equation T = 0.06x.

We see that there are many ways to represent a function, and each one
depends on its context. Now that we are reminded what a function is in
mathematics, let's talk some more about using them in real-world
settings!

Piecewise functions.
Some situations can only be described by more than one formula,
depending on the value of the independent variable.
b. 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.
Solution:
The cost of text messaging can be expressed by the piecewise function:
IV. EVALUATION
Answer the following problems:

A. For which values of k is the set of order pairs a function?

B. Which of the following statements represent function?

a. Students to its current age.
b. Countries to its capital.
c. A store to its merchandise
C. A person is earning P600 per day to do a certain job. Express the total salary
S as a function of the number n of days that the person works.
D. A taxi ride costs Ᵽ40.00 for the first 500 meters, and each additional 300
meters (or a fraction thereof) adds Ᵽ3.50 to the fare. Use a piecewise function
to represent the taxi fare in terms of the distance d in meters.
E. Maria needs to order shirts for the 8th grade class at Lurugan National High
School. The company she hires to print the shirts charges a Ᵽ35.00 design fee
and Ᵽ80.00 for each shirt ordered. How much will Maria pay if she orders 5
shirts? 10 shirts? 50 shirts? x shirts?
V. ASSIGNMENT:
For independent work, ask the students to do the following:
1. Make a concept map for mathematical functions.
2. Identify real-life situations that can be modelled or represented by a function.
Then, write the equation for the function.
