Relations Functions
The elements of the domain can be The elements of the domain can be imagined
imagined as input to a machine that as input to a machine that applies a rule so
applies a rule to these inputs to generate that so that each input corresponds to only
one or more outputs one output.
A relation is also a set of ordered pairs A function is a set of ordered pairs (x, y) such
(x,y). that no two ordered pairs have the same x-
value but different y-values.
A function is a set of ordered pairs (x,y) such that no two ordered pairs have the
same x-value but different y-values, using functional notation, we can write f(x) = y read as
“f of x is equal to y”. In particular, if (1, 2) is an ordered pair associated with the function f,
then we say that f(2) = 1.
In activity 1 (Do You Know Me) No. 1 each element in the domain {2, -6, 0, 1}, is
assigned to no more than on value in the range { 3, 5, -2, -5 }. Therefore, it is a function.
Meanwhile in No. 2 is not a function because (1, 3), (1, 4) and (2, 5), (2, 6) are ordered pairs
with the same x-value but different y-values.
In Activity 1 (Do You Know Me) No. 3 is not a function since there is a repetition to
the input value. The domain { -4, -3, -4, -5} and the range { 1, 2, 3, 4 }. Meanwhile in No. 4
each value matches to only one output value. The domain is {1, 2, 3, 4} and the range is { 3,
6, 9, 12}. Therefore, this relation is a function.
If we are given a set of ordered pairs, we can easily determine whether the relation is a
function or not by simply looking if each first element is used only once in the given set.
In Activity 1 (Do You Know Me) No. 5, when the equation is solved for y we have,
𝑦2 = 6 − 𝑥 2 subtract 𝑥2
𝑦 apply the square root method.
The symbol ± in the last equation shows that for all values of x between -2 and
In activity 1 (Do You Know Me) No. 6, when the equation is solved for y we have..
In the equation 𝑦 = 5 − 𝑥2 there is no value of x that makes the function y undefined. Thus,
the domain of 𝑦 = 5 − 𝑥2 is the set of real numbers or {x/x ∈ R}.
Note:
When finding the domain and range of a function involving:
1. A radical with an even index: radicand must be non-negative; thus, the radicand
must be greater than or equal to zero.
2. In a fraction the denominator must be not be equal to zero.
In activity 1 (Do You Know Me) No. 7 and 8 use the vertical line test to determine whether
the graph is function or not.
Using a vertical line test in activity 1 (Do You Know Me) No. 7 we have..
y
Likewise, using the vertical line test in activity 1 (Do You Know Me) No. 8, we have..
For instance, the price of a plot of land (y) is related to the number of square meters
of land bought (x); the monthly wages (y) of an employee is related to the number hours the
employee worked (x): the water bill paid for the month (y) is related to the number of cubic
meters of water consumed.
d. What’s New
Activity 2. Try Me
The SSG Organization plans to sell cupcakes to raise a fund. A bakery charges them
P15.00 for the first 100 cupcakes. After the first 100 cupcakes they purchase up to
150 cupcakes the bakery reduces the price to P13.50 per cupcake. After they
purchased150 cupcakes, the price lower to P10.00 per cupcake. Write a function
that models this situation.
In this scenario you need to use Piecewise function to model the situation.
e. What is It
Functions as representations of real-life situations.
Functions can often be used to model real situations. Identifying an appropriate functional
model will lead to a better understanding of various phenomena.
Definition.
• Example 1. Give a function C that can represent that cost of buying x meals, if one
meal costs P40.
Solution: since each meal cost P40, then the cost function is C(x) = 40x.
• Example 2. One hundred meters of fencing is available to enclose a rectangular
area next to a river. Give a function A that can represent the area that can be enclosed, in
terms of x.
Solution: the area of the rectangular enclosure is A=xy. We will write this as
a function of x. since only 100 m of fencing is available, then
A = 50 – 0.5x multiply x
Piecewise Function
Some situations can only be described by more than one formula, depending on the
value of the independent variable. Like in activity 2 you use piecewise function to
represent the situation.
