III. PROCEDURES
WEEK 1: Day 1
Welcome to the world of General Mathematics! Are you familiar with functions?
Many people are not aware that function is described in certain phenomena and situations.
Function is one of the core concepts in Mathematics as well as in our daily lives. Just for instances,
functions in Mathematics can:
- compute the height of a plant,
- its growth every period, and
- even figure an employee‟s salary savings in a month.
Page 1
In your junior high school mathematics, you have learned about linear, quadratic and
polynomial functions.
In this lesson, you will learn more applications of functions in real-life situations. Let us start by
defining a function.
REMEMBER ME?
Definition of a function:
1. It is a relation where each element in the domain (x) is related to only one value in the
range (y) by some rule.
2. No two ordered pairs have the same domain (x-value) but different range (y-values).
3. Usually represented by the equation y = f(x).
Functions can be represented or modeled thru table of values, mapping diagram, set of
ordered pairs and graph.
DIRECTIONS: Put a check mark on the blank provided before each number if it is a function.
Copy ALL and write the answers on your Gen Math notebook.
__________ 1. f = {(0, -1), (2, -5), (4, -9), (6, -13)}
__________ 2. r = {(a, 0), (b, -1), (c, 0), (d, -1)}
__________ 3. g = {(5, -10), (25, -50), (50, -100)}
__________ 4. t = {(-2, 0), (-1, 1), (0, 1), (-2, 2)}
__________ 5. h = {(1,3), (2,6), (3,9), (4,12),… }
DIRECTIONS: Determine if the given mapping diagram represents a function. Write on the
blank provided before each number if it is a function „F‟ and „NF‟ if it is not. Copy ALL and
write the answers on your Gen Math notebook.

B. Establishing a purpose for the lesson
Problem 1. Give a function C that can represent the cost of buying x meals, if one meal costs
₱40.
TAKE NOTE: Since each meal costs ₱40, then the cost function is C(x) = 40x.
This is a very easy problem, right?
TAKE NOTE: To represent the amount of profit (P), we used n for the number of pieces of
bracelets made and a constant of Php1000 for the capital. The equation for this situation is
represented by P (n) = 20n – 1000.Therefore, the profit is;
P (n) = 20n – 1000 Represent the function.
= 20 (100) – 1000 Substitute n bracelets
= 2000 – 1000 Simplify
P (n) = 1000 So their profit is ₱1000.
Can you represent a function in real-life? Try to make your own function that can be
applied in real-life situation.
In the next part of the lesson, you will be learning another type of function.
Page 3
Some situations can only be described by more than one formula, depending on the value
of the independent variable.
Piecewise Function: ( ) {
TAKE NOTE: 1. The input value is the no. of text messages and the output is amount of
monthly bill.
2. Let t(m) represent the amount paid by the consumer each month.
3. Mark the function with t(m) = {
4. Put the conditions on the right side starting with the word “if” using inequality
symbols. Between 0 to 100 messages is represented by while
more than 100 messages by
5. Represent the first function with a fixed amount of “300” for messages
between 0 to 100 while the second function with “300 + m” for messages
more than 100.
Piecewise Function: ( ) {
, -
TAKE NOTE: 1. The input value is distance and the output is the cost of the jeepney fare.
2. Let F (d) represents the fare as a function of distance
3. Mark the function with F(d) = {
4. Put the conditions on the right side starting with the word “if” using inequality
symbols. Between 0 to 4km is represented by while more than 4km
by
5. Represent the first function with a fixed value “8” for the fare between 0 to
4km while the second function with “8 + 1.5 [d]” for the fare more than 4km.
6. The symbol [d] denotes the greatest integer or floor function applied to d.
The floor function gives the largest integer less than or equal to d, e.g. [4.1] =
[4.9] = 4.
Can you make your own piece-wise function? Do you find this concept easy?

G. Finding practical applications of concepts and skills in daily living
A function is merely a “machine” that generates some output in correlation to a given
input. So, if ( ) then, ( )
Understanding this behavior is essential to recognizing the variety of input\output
correlations in the real world. Again, all a function does is provide a mathematical way to
model or represent a situation where a certain input will give a certain output.
Here are a few examples:
Circumference of a Circle - A circle‟s circumference is a function of its diameter.
A Shadow - The length of person‟s shadow along the floor is a function of their height.
Driving a Car - When driving a car, your location is a function of time. You see in
Quantum Physics, you cannot be in two places at once. Therefore, the vehicle‟s position
is a function of time.
Temperature - Based on a variety of inputs, or factors, we get a certain temperature. So,
temperature is a function of various variables.
Money - The amount of money you have is a function of the time spent earning it.
H. Making generalizations and abstractions about the lesson
What is the difference between a relation and function? Do you still remember this in Junior
High School Mathematics?
RELATIONS FUNCTIONS
A relation is a rule that relates values from a A function is a relation where each element in
set of values called the domain to the second the domain is related to only one value in the
set of values called the range. range by some rule.
A function is a set of ordered pairs (x, y) such
A relation is also a set of ordered pairs (x, y). that no two ordered pairs have the same x-
value but different y-values.

Ni Hao! How are you today? Hope poly (nomial), you are doing great! In grade 10
Mathematics, you have covered the concept of polynomial functions.
Page 16
A polynomial function is a function such as a quadratic, a cubic, a quartic, and so on,
involving only non-negative integer powers of x.
𝒇(𝒙) 𝒂𝒏 𝒙𝒏 𝒂𝒏 𝟏 𝒙𝒏 𝟏
… 𝒂𝟐 𝒙𝟐 𝒂𝟏 𝒙 𝒂𝟎
The degree of a polynomial is the highest power of x in its expression. Constant (non-
zero) polynomials, linear polynomials, quadratics, cubics and quartics are polynomials of
degree 0,1,2,3 and 4 respectively. The function f(x) = 0 is also polynomial, but we say that its
degree is „undefined‟.
Retrieved from: http://www.mathcentre.ac.uk/resources/uploaded/mc-ty-polynomial-2009-1.pdf
A polynomial is an expression that can have constants, variables and exponents but:
3x polynomial
x–2 polynomial
√ not polynomial (because of √ )

To represent a rational function using table of values, get any value of x (do not make
the function undefined) and substitute it to the function to get the value of the function x
or f(x) and present it in a table vertically or horizontally.

Do you still remember how to plot points in Cartesian plane? We used ordered pairs
(x,y) in plotting points. In this lesson, I will show you different graphs of rational function and
their asymptotes.
WEEK 3: Day 4
Intercepts
Intercepts are x or y coordinates of the point at which a graph crosses the x-axis or y-axis.
1. x – intercept
It is the x-coordinate of point (x,0) where the graph crosses the x-axis. To find x-
intercept, substitute 0 for y and solve for x.
2. y –intercept
It is the y-coordinate of point (0,y) where the graph crosses the y-axis. To find y-
intercept, substitute 0 for x and solve for y.
Illustrative Example 1: ( )
x-intercepts : y-intercepts :
Set y = 0 Set x = 0

Zeros of Rational Functions
The values of x that will make the numerator zero without simultaneously making the
denominator equal to zero. Zeros of a function is also the x-intercept.
Finding the zeros of rational functions:
1. Factor the numerator and the denominator and cancel common factor(s).
2. Identify the x-values that will make the numerator equal to zero.
3. Identify the zeros.
*Hole(s) is (are) produced when numerator and denominator have common factor(s.)
Illustrative Examples:
Therefore x = – 4 is a zero of f(x). The hole is – 2 produced by the common factor x + 2, equate
it to zero and solve for x.
( )( )
3.) Given: ( ) =( )( )
The numerator x – 2 will be zero at x = 2. Therefore x = 2 is a zero of f(x). There is a hole which
is 2 produced by the factor x – 2, equate it to zero and solve for x.
Asymptotes of Rational Functions
Consider the situation in basketball court, as an audience, if you want to see the game
nearly, you move closer and closer to the court but not allowed to enter inside the court.
This idea is similar to the definition of asymptote.
Asymptote is a line that the graph of function gets close to but does not touch the graph.
There are three different asymptotes:
1) Vertical Asymptote
- restrictions on the x-values of a reduced rational function
- to find the restrictions, equate the denominator to 0 and solve for x
- common factors canceled on both N(X) and D(X) represent holes in the graph.
2) Horizontal Asymptotes
Let n be the degree of numerator and m be the degree of denominator.
- If n < m, the horizontal asymptote is y = 0.
- If n = m, the horizontal asymptote is y = a/b.
where: a – leading coefficient of N(x)
b – leading coefficient of D(x)
- If n > m, the graph has no horizontal asymptote.
3) Oblique or Slant Asymptotes
- Occurs when the numerator of f(x) has a degree that is one higher than the degree of
the denominator.
- If n > m, the asymptote will be oblique or slant (y = mx + b).
- To get the equation of the oblique asymptote, simply divide the numerator by the
denominator by either using long division or synthetic division.
- The oblique asymptote is the quotient with the remainder ignored and set equal to y.

Lesson 10: Solving Problems involving Rational Functions, Equations, and Inequalities
Problem 1. An airforce plane flies at a speed that is 30 kilometers per hour faster than a cargo
plane. The air force plane flies 500km in the amount of time that the cargo plane flies 440km.
Find the speed of each plane.
Plane D R t=
Cargo 440 R
Solution:
Since the time of travel for the air force plane is equal to the time of the cargo
plane, the equation should be written as:
Since the rate of the air force plane is 30kph faster than the cargo plane, then
r(air) = 220 + 30 = 250
Therefore, the cargo plane travels at 220kph while the air force plane travels at
250kph.
Problem 2: Maria can paint a kitchen in 3 hours and James can paint the same kitchen in 2
hours. How long would it take for both working together to paint the kitchen? Use the formula
rate = amount of work / time (r = w / t).
Given: Maria can paint the whole kitchen in 3 hours, then she can do 1/3 of the job in 1 hour
rate of Maria = 1/3 kitchen per hour
James can paint the kitchen in 2 hours, then he can do 1/2 of the job in 1 hour.
rate of James = 1/2 kitchen per hour
Let x= the number of hours it would take both to paint the kitchen. Their combined rate
would be, rate of both Maria and James = 1/x

In this module, you will learn more about one-to-one functions and its inverse function.
You will also solve problems involving inverse functions. Let‟s get ready!
REFLECT:
REMEMBER ME!
Definition of a one-to-one function:
A one-to-one function is a function in which every element in the range of a function
corresponds to exactly one element in the domain.
In Illustrative Examples 1-4, let us determine whether the given relation is a function. If it
is a function, let us determine whether it is one-to-one or not.
Illustrative Example 1: M = {(3, -1), (2, -1), (1, -1), (0, -1)}
Since the domains for this function are different
from each other, we can say that this is a function. However, since there are y-values that
have more than one x-value, this is said to be many-to-one function.
Illustrative Example 2: The relation pairing a PHS student to his or her student number.
Each PHS student is assigned to a unique student number. Thus, the relation is a
function. Further, two different students cannot be assigned the same student number. Thus,
the function is one-to-one function.
Page 40
Illustrative Example 4: Observe the following graphs. Which of them are functions?
Which of them are one-to-one functions?
A B C
D E
A simple way to determine if a given graph is that of a function is by using the Vertical
Line Test.
Vertical Line Test – A relation is a function if each vertical line does not intersect the graph at
more than one point.
In addition, to determine if the graph is that of a one-to-one function, we will use the
Horizontal Line Test.
Horizontal Line Test – A function is a one-to-one if each horizontal line does not intersect the
graph at more than one point.
Do you know now how to use vertical line test and horizontal line test? A piece of cake,
right? So, it‟s activity time!

The rabbit population example is said to grow exponentially. In exponential growth, the
original amount is repeatedly multiplied by a positive number called the growth factor. Let us
discuss how you can construct an exponential model.
Page 54
Exponential Models and Population Growth
Problem 1. Going back to the opening problem, let us assume that the rabbit population
doubles every year. a) Give an exponential model for the number of rabbits per year. b) How
many rabbits would there be after 28 years (from 1859 to 1887)?
Initially there were 24 rabbits. So at 0 year, the number of rabbits is 24. Since the rabbit
population doubles every year, that means after the first year there will be (24)(2) = 48 rabbits.
On the second year there will be (48)(2) or we can also write it as (24)(2)(2) = 96 rabbits. Study
the table below and observe if you can see a pattern in every solution.
Did you notice something in the table? Yes, the initial number of rabbits (24) is always
present in every computation. What else? Did you notice the number of years and the
exponents in the solution are the same? The number of years becomes the exponents of 2. But
where does the number 2 came from? That is right, it came from the condition that every year
the number of rabbits double.
Now that we have all the variables in the problem, let us now form the exponential model
for this problem.
a) The exponential function is in the form f(x) = bx. In the problem, f(x) represents the number of
rabbits, while b is the number 2 and x is the number of years. Let us use the solution on the
second year.
TAKE NOTE: Suppose a quantity f(x) or y doubles every T units of time. If yo is the initial
amount, then the quantity y after x units of time is given by the exponential model, ( ) .
Problem 2. What if the number of rabbits in the problem triple every year, how are you going to
represent the exponential model?
For this problem, yo is 24, T is 1 year, while the base will be 3 (triple) instead of 2.
Therefore, ( ) and the model will be ( ) ( ) .
Another application of exponential function is the half life of a substance. This is the time it takes
for a substance to exponentially decay to half of its original quantity. We use half-life in
applications involving radioactive isotopes.
Page 55
TAKE NOTE: If the half-life of a substance is T units, and y o is the initial amount of the
substance when x = 0, then the amount of y of substance remaining after x units of time is given
by the exponential model, ( ) .
Problem 3. Suppose that the half-life of a certain radioactive substance is 10 days and there
are 10 g initially, a) give an exponential model for the amount of remaining substance and b)
determine the amount of the substance remaining after 30 days.
a) In this problem, 10 g is the initial amount y o, while 10 days is the value of T and x is 30 days.
So using the exponential model ( ) , the answer will be ( ) .
Compound Interest
Benjamin Franklin, described compound interest: "Money makes money. And the money
that money makes, makes money." That is probably the simplest explanation of compound
interest you'll ever hear. You will encounter more about compound interest on the second
quarter, but for now let us consider its exponential model.
a) In this problem, the ₱100,000 amount invested is P, while r is 6% or 0.06. Using the
exponential model ( ) ( ) , for this condition will have ( ) ( ) .
The final answer will be ( ) ( ) .
b) After 5 years (when x = 5), the amount of the investment will be,
( ) ( ) or ₱133,822.56.

1) Alexander Fleming discovered penicillin by observing mold growing on Petri dishes. Imagine
that you are biochemist studying a type of mold that has 3,000 spores initially. Suppose that
the mold spores quadruple (increases 4 times) every 20 minutes. a) Give an exponential model
for the amount of spores as a function of time. b) How many mold spores would there be after
1 hour (60 minutes)?
2) A round goby is a bottom-dwelling fish native to Eastern Europe. In 1995, it was found in
the Great Lakes, where it is expected to be harmful to already existing habitats. The round
goby is known to spawn several times during the summer, and biologists are tracking the
growth of its population. Suppose 11 round gobies were in the Great Lakes in 1995 and that
their population triples in size each year. a) Write an exponential growth equation to describe
this situation. b) How many round gobies were in the Great Lakes after 2 years?
3) Cesium 137 is a radioactive metal with a short half-life of 30 years. In a sample originally
having 10 g of cesium 137, a) give an exponential model for the amount of remaining
substance and b) how much cesium 137 will be present after 120 years?

In the next part of the lesson, you will be learning the difference between exponential
function, equations and inequalities.
WEEK 5: Day 2
Illustrative Example 1: In the rabbit population problem in the beginning of the lesson, the
exponential function is f(x) = 24(2)x or y = 24(2)x. This will become an exponential equation if we
change f(x) to a particular value, for example 96. The exponential equation will be 96 = 24(2) x.
For the exponential inequality, the symbols <, >, ≤, and ≥ are used instead of the = sign. So the
exponential inequality will be 96 < 24(2)x. Observe the table below to see the difference.
96 < 24(2)x
96 > 24(2)x
f(x) = 24(2)x or y = 24(2)x 96 = 24(2)x 96 ≤ 24(2)x
96 ≥ 24(2)x

To solve exponential equation, we use the laws of exponents. We are also going to use
this property that if x and y are real numbers and if b x = by, then we can say that x = y.
125 = 125
Illustrative Example 3. Let us answer the equation (½)x+2 = 16x.
Page 58
If (2)-x - 2 = 24x, then
-x - 2 = 4x (Add both side by x)
Use the law of exponents. If bx = by, then we can say
-x + x - 2 = 4x + x that x = y. In bx = by, b is 2 in this example. To get the
Step -2 = 5x (Divide both side by 5)
equation x = y just cover the number 2 and the
2 exponents on each side will be the equation x = y.
2-x - 2 = 24x and that‟s how you get -x - 2 = 4x.
Thus x = is the solution of

Illustrative Example 1. Let us determine the value of x in the inequality 3 x > 32x – 3.
In this example, b is equal to 3 and 3 > 1 so we use either property a or b. The inequality sign
used is > which makes as finally apply the second property (b. If b > 1 and b x > by, then x > y).
Illustrative Example 2. Let us solve the value of x in the inequality 82x – 1 ≤ 16x.
In this example, we need to rewrite each side of the equation as an exponential expression
having the same base. The exponential form of 8 is 23, while 16 is also the same as 24. That will
make 82x – 1 ≤ 16x equal to (23)2x – 1 ≤ (24)x. We simplify by applying the power of a power rule and
we will have 26x – 3 ≤ 24x. b is equal to 2 and 2 > 1 so we use either property a or b. The
inequality sign used is ≤ which makes as finally apply the first property (a. If b > 1 and bx < by,
then x < y).

Problem 1: Emerson deposits ₱50, 000.00 in a savings account. The account pays 6% annual
interest. If he makes no more deposits and no withdrawals, calculate his new balance after 10
years.
Solution:
The interest represents a 6% rate of growth per year, so the growth factor or the
constant multiplied is:
100% + 6% = 106% or 1.06
To find an equation that can be used to find the new balance after any number of years
by considering the yearly calculations, we have:

Problem 2: The novel corona virus spreads in the urbanized community at a rate of 25% each
day. There are 500 confirmed COVID-19 cases as of today. How many possible COVID-19
cases will there be
Solution:
y = 500(1.25)1
y = 625
y = 500(1.25)7
y = 2, 384.19
c. Using the formula y = abx where a = 500, b = 1.25, and x = 30, then
y = 500(1.25)30
y = 403, 896.78
There will be 403, 897 COVID-19 cases one month from now.

MATH TRIVIA
The conversion says that the equation by = x in exponential form can be converted into an
equation in logarithmic form log b (x) = y and vice versa. This is true for b > 0, b ≠ 1 and x > 0.
Things to remember:
In both logarithmic and exponential forms, b is the base.
In the exponential form, y is an exponent. But y = log b (x). This implies that the
logarithm is actually an exponent.
In the logarithmic form log b (x), x cannot be negative. For example log 10 (-100) is
undefined since 10 raised to any exponent will never result to a negative number.
The value of logb (x) can be negative. For example, log 10 (0.1) = -1 because
10-1 = 0.1.

Illustrative Example 1: Exponential to Logarithmic Conversion
Note: You can check if your conversion is correct using a scientific calculator.
Just input log10 (100) or simply log (100) and press the equal sign. The
answer should be 2.

Additional Information:
1. Common logarithm – is the logarithm with base 10 and is usually written in log or log 10.
2. Natural Logarithm – is the logarithm with base e and is usually written in log e or ln
(pronounced as „el en‟). Euler‟s number, e, is a constant with approximate value of 2.71828.
You can find e in your scientific calculator.
Examples: loge 27
ln 9x
ln 44
3. Change-of-base Property – can be used when evaluating logarithms. Some old model
calculators only have the LOG button function (common logarithm). If the logarithm given has a
base other than 10, you still need to change its base in order to evaluate it.
Page 83
Example: Press log2 (50) = in your calculator
New calculators can input the given logarithm as is and the answer is 5.64
But for old calculators, the base should be changed first like this,
( )
log2 (50) will become . Base 2 was changed into base 10 (common
( )
logarithm) and the expression was expressed as a ratio.
( )
By pressing = in the calculator, the answer is also 5.64.
( )
Thus, using the change-of-base property, log2 (50) = .
WEEK 7: Day 3
Did you know that logarithmic function is related to exponential function? Try to see their
relationship by getting the inverse of the exponential function y = b x.
Given y = bx
Interchange the variables x = by
Solve for y using the exp-log conversion logb (x) = y or
y = logb (x)
Thus, the logarithmic function y = log b (x) is the inverse of the exponential function y = b x
and vice versa. See the graph below. As previously discussed in week 4, when you graph
functions that are inverses of each other, the two curves will form a mirror image with an axis of
symmetry at the line y = x.

Solution: 35 = x
x = 243
NOTE FOR (1) and (2): Convert the equation into its
(2) log5 (x+8) = 3 exponential form and then solve for x.
Solution: 53 = x + 8 NOTE FOR (3): Since there are logarithmic expressions with
125 – 8 = x the same base on both sides of the equation, one-to-one
x = 117 property should be used. Rewrite the equation by removing
the log symbols while leaving the expression in the
(3) log4 (2x) = log4 (10) parenthesis for both sides. Lastly, solve for the value of x.
Solution: 2x = 10
2x/2 = 10/2
x=5

WEEK 7: Day 4
Solution:
Step 1: x > 0 NOTE for STEP 2: Using the property for base greater than 1 (if
Step 2: x ≤ 35 logb (x) > y, then x > by), express the logarithmic inequality into
x ≤ 243 exponential inequality and solve for x.
Step 3: 0 < x ≤ 243
Solution:
Step 1: x+8>0
x > -8 NOTE for STEP 2: Using the property for base greater than 1, log6
Step 2: x+8 ≤ 62 (x+8) ≤ 2 will become x+8 ≤ 62. After solving x, the inequality is x ≤ 28.
x ≤ 28
Step 3: -8 < x ≤ 28
