1. The local barangay received a budget of PhP 100,000
to provide medical check ups for the children in the
barangay.
a. If the amount is to be allotted equally among all the
children in the barangay. Write an equation
representing the relationship of the allotted amount
per child (y-variable) versus the total number of
children (x-variable)
b. A philanthropist wants to supplement the budget
allotted for each child by providing an additional PhP
750 for each child in the barangay. If g(x) represents
this new amount allotted for each child, construct a

Objectives:
• Distinguish rational functions,

rational equations and rational
inequalities.

A rational expression is an expression
that can be written as a ratio of two
polynomials.

Determine whether the given is a rational
equation, rational function, rational inequality or None
of these.

Objectives:
• Solve rational equations; and
• Solve problems involving

rational equations.

Warm Up!
5(x + 1/5) 5x + 1
12(m + 1/12) 12m + 1
3x(4/x + 4) 12 + 12x
10a(1/2a + 3/5a) 11
12m(2/3m - 5/2m) - 22
(x + 2)(3 - 4/(x+2)) 3x + 2

To solve a rational equation:
(a) Eliminate denominators by multiplying

each term of the equation by the least
common denominator.
(b) Note that eliminating denominators
may introduce extraneous solutions.
Check the solutions of the transformed
equations with the original equation.

Answer:
• The LCD of all the denominators is 10x. Multiply

both sides of the equation by 10x and solve the
resolving equation.

Answer:
• The LCD of all the denominators is (x + 2)(x – 2).

Multiply both sides of the equation by (x + 2)(x – 2)
and solve the resolving equation.

Let’s Try This!
1. In an inter-barangay basketball league, the team
from Barangay Culiat has won 12 out of 25 games,
a winning percentage of 48%. How many games
should they win in a row to improve their win
percentage to 60%
Solution. Let x represent the number of games that they need

to win to raise their percentage to 60%. The team has already
won 12 out of their 25 games. If they win x games in a row to
increase their percentage to 60%, then they would have played
12+x games out of their 25+x games. The equation is
Multiply 25+x to both sides of the equation and solve the

resulting equation.

Let’s Try This!
• Jens walks 5 kilometers from his house to Quiapo to
buy a new bike which he uses to return home. He
averaged 10 kilometers faster on his bike than on
foot. If his total trip took 1 hour and 20 minutes, what
is his walking speed in kph? Use the formula v = d/t.

Objectives:
• Graph rational functions.

Mechanics of the game:
1. The game should be played by three groups. Each group
should have a team leader to lead the group.
2. The game starts by presenting the first question in random.
The first team to answer the question correctly will be given a
chance to choose the category of the next question and will be
given a time to answer depending on the value of the
question. Once the time is over, the other teams will be given
a chance to answer the said question.
3. Two consecutive chances will be given to every team who can
answer the questions simultaneously and on the third time,
the team will be given a chance to choose “play” or “pass”. If
they choose play, the team can go on in answering the next
questions but once they choose pass, the question will be
given to the other teams.
4. If the team answered the three questions simultaneously, a
breaker question will be given by the game master to give
chance to other teams to answer the question.
5. If none of the team answered the question correctly, a tie-
breaker question will be given by the game master.
6. Once all the questions are revealed, a final jeopardy will be
given by the game master.
7. A team with a highest point will be declared a winner.
8. The accumulated points earned by each team corresponds
to the points to be given to each member of the team with 6
points higher for the representatives.
9. Time allocation for every question:
P100 to P300 ------------------------ 20 seconds
P400 to P500 ------------------------ 40 seconds
Final Jeopardy (P1000) ----------- Open time

Let the denominator equal to zero and solve for x.
b. Horizontal Asymptote.
For rational function f(x) = axn + bxn-1+…,
bxm + cxm-1+…
 If n < m, the horizontal asymptote is y = 0.
 If n = m, the horizontal asymptote is a/b.
 If n > m, there is no horizontal asymptote
c. Oblique Asymptote.
Divide the numerator by the denominator.
The quotient is the oblique asymptote of the
rational function.

5. Using the sign analysis test/table of signs,
determine where the graph is passing for
every region of the coordinate plane. If the
outcome of the sign on a particular region is
positive, shade the region below the x-axis.
If the outcome is negative, shade the region
above x-axis.
6. Determine the path of the curve on the
coordinate plane and analyze the end
behaviour of the graph with respect to the
asymptotes.
7. Sketch the graph using a smooth curve.

1st Step: Write in factored form:

y = (x – 3)(x + 3)
(x – 3)(x - 1)
y=x+3
x-1

2nd Step: Find the intercepts:
x-intercept: y = (x + 3) 0=x+3
(x - 1) x-1
“Let the y or the numerator 0=x+3
equal to zero and solve for x.”
x=-3
y-intercept: y = (x + 3) y=0+3
(x - 1) 0-1
“Let x equal to zero y=-3
and solve for y.”

3rd Step: Find the asymptote:
Vertical Asymptote:
y = (x + 3)
0=x-1
(x - 1) x=1
“Let the denominator equal
to zero and solve for x.”
Horizontal Asymptote:
“Since the degree of the numerator is
equal to the degree of the denominator, y=1
therefore, The horizontal asymptote is a/b
or y = 1.
Oblique Asymptote: “None”
4th Step: Plot the points on a number line:
