JEEPNEY TRICYCLE
 HELP MIGUEL!!!

Miguel is a senior high school student who commutes from home to school
which is 15 km apart. There are two modes of transportation the first one is
through jeep and the other one is through tricycle. In riding a jeepney the fare
charge ₱9.00 for the first 4 km travel and ₱0.75 for each additional kilometer.
Meanwhile in riding a tricycle the fare would be ₱10.00 for the first km travel and
₱1 for each additional kilometer.

Will you help Miguel analyze his situation?

 HELP MIGUEL!!!

1. What characteristics does Miguel possess if he chose to ride a

jeepney?
2. Is there any advantage in riding a jeepney instead of tricycle?
Or riding a tricycle instead of jeepney? What would it be?
3. If you are Miguel which between the two modes of
transportation will you choose? Why?
 LETS REFLECT
•Decision making is always part of our lives, from the moment we
wake- up we start to decide the proper action to undertake be it minor
or major decisions.

•In the previous problem we determine the cost of the fare by using a
table wherein we repeatedly add the fare charge per kilometer. Thus,
this type of problem can be solved using functions, and at this point
let us determine how we are going to do that.

GEORGE POLYA’S
4 STEP RULE
 George Polya’s 4 – Step Rule

1. Explore. This step involves careful reading, analyzing, identifying

the given and unknown facts in the problem and expressing the
unknown in terms of variables.
2. Plan. In this step writing an equation that describes the
relationships between or among the variables is involve.
3. Solve. This step requires working out with the written equation
and other number relations to determine the required quantities
that answer the question in the problem.
4. Check. The final step that employ the use of other approaches to
examine the appropriateness of the answer.
EXAMPLE 1
 LET’S TRAVEL

A proposed Light Rail Transit System Line 1 (LRT-1) fare

would charge ₱18.00 for the first four stations and ₱5.00 for
each additional station over the proposed fare.
a. Find the fare function f(x) where x represents the number
of stations traveled
b. Find the proposed fare for 15 stations
c. Find the proposed fare for 20 stations
A proposed Light Rail Transit System Line 1 (LRT-1) fare would charge ₱18.00 for the first
four stations and ₱5.00 for each additional station over the proposed fare.
 LET’S TRAVEL

Explore. Since the first step involves analysis and proper

labeling of the known and unknown facts we will let x =
number of stations traveled.

There are also some conditions that was set in the problem
such as the cost of fare which is set up to 4 stations only
thus we can represent x – 4 = number of stations traveled
over and above 4 stations
 LET’S TRAVEL
Plan. In writing an equation that will represent the relationship between
the known and unknown quantities, since we know that if we travelled up
to 4 stations we must pay P18, we can represent it as
f(x) = 18 for 0 < x ≤ 4
However, if we travelled more than 4 stations the cost of the fare have
different method of computation so we need to consider it. Since the cost of
every station after the 4th station is ₱5.00 we will now obtain
f(x) = 18 + 5(x – 4)

Now simplifying the equation will lead us to:

f(x) = 18 + 5x – 20
f(x) = 5x – 2
At this point we can say that the fare function is f(x) = 5x - 2
 LET’S TRAVEL

Solve. To find the fare charge for 15 stations the fare function f(x) = 5x
-2 will be used and 15 will be substituted to the function
f(15) = 5(15) – 2
By evaluating the function we obtained f(15) = 73.

Check. To check whether we arrived at the correct solution you can

use table or graph.
Thus. the proposed fare for 15-station travel is ₱73.00

f(20) = 5 (20) – 2 = 98

The proposed fare for 20 – station travel is ₱98.

EXAMPLE 2
 BINGE WATCH

Lucena Network charges ₱450.00 monthly cable connection fee

plus ₱130.00 for each hour of pay-per-view (PPV) event
regardless of a full hour or a fraction of an hour.
a. Find payment function f(x) where x represents the number of
PPV hours.
b. What is the monthly bill of a customer who watched 25
hours of PPV events?
c. What is the monthly bill of a customer who watched 0.5
hour of PPV events? To solve problems that involve functions
you can employ George Polya’s 4-step rule.
 Lucena Network charges ₱450.00 monthly cable connection fee plus
₱130.00 for each hour of pay-per-view (PPV) event regardless of a full hour or a
fraction of an hour.

b. The monthly bill of a customer who

a. ₱450.00 = fixed monthly
cable connection fee
Let x = number of PPV hours
in a month
₱130.00(x) = amount of PPV
payment in a specific hour
watched 25 hours PPV events can be
represented by 24 < x ≤ 25.
f(x) = 450 + 130(x).
f(25) = 450 + 130(25)
= 450 + 3,250

The payment function is f(x) = = 3,700

450 + 130(x). The monthly bill of a customer who watched
25 hours of PPV event is ₱3,700.00
 Lucena Network charges ₱450.00 monthly cable connection fee plus
₱130.00 for each hour of pay-per-view (PPV) event regardless of a full hour or a
fraction of an hour.

•c. The monthly bill of a customer who watched 0.5

hour PPV events can be represented by 0 < x ≤ 1 and
since the problem states that regardless of a full hour
or a fraction of an hour the additional charge will be
made on hourly basis only, thus the value of x will be 1
• f(x) = Php 450.00 + Php 130.00(x).
• f(1) = Php 450.00 + Php 130.00(1)
• = Php 450.00 + Php 130.00
• = Php 580.00

 BUSINESS AS USUAL

Bakers’ Club is trying to raise funds by selling premium chocolate chip

cookies in a school fair. The variable cost to make each cookie is ₱15.00 and
it is being sold for ₱25.00 So far the organization has already shelled out
₱790.00 for the cookie sale
a. Find the profit function P(x) where x represents the number of cookies sold
