Quarter 1 – Week 1:
Represents Real-life Situations
Using Functions, Including
Piece-wise Functions
(M11GM-Ia-1)
FUNCTIONS AS MODELS
LET US KNOW
Try This!
After going through this learning activity sheet, you are expected to
represent real-life situations using functions, including piece-wise functions.
LET US REVIEW
Given a table of values of x and y, how would you express the rule to
describe the correspondence between the two variables? Write your answers
on a separate sheet of paper.
x 2 4 6 8 10 12 14
y 9 17 25 33 41 49 57
LET US STUDY
Functions
Relations A function is a relation where each
A relation is a rule that relates element in the domain is related to
values from a set of values (called only one value in the range by
the domain) to the second set of some rule.
values (called the range).

Examples
a b
c
Solution. Graphs a and b are graphs of functions while c is not
because it does not pass the vertical line test. (The red lines serve as
the vertical lines used to test the graphs).
4.
Which of the following represent a function?
a. y = 3x + 1
b. y = 𝑥 2 + x -2
c. 𝑥2 + 𝑦2 = 4
d. 𝑦 = √𝑥 + 1
Solution. All of the given equations are relations. All are functions
except c. Equation c is not a function because there is an x-value
that corresponds to more than one y-value. (example if x = 0, then y
can be +2 or -2).
The bill has two parts: the one-time fee of ₱799 and the hourly
charge of ₱20. The total monthly bill is the one-time fee plus the
charge per hour times the number of hours.

6. Piecewise Function
A jeepney ride costs ₱9.00 for the first 4 kilometers,
and ₱1.00 for every additional kilometer. Represent the
jeepney fare in terms of the distance d in kilometers.
Solution. The input value is the distance and the output is the
cost of the jeepney fare. If F(d) represents the fare as a function of
distance, the function can be represented as follows:
9 𝑖𝑓 0 < 𝑑 ≤ 4
F(d) = { }
9 + 1(𝑑 ) 𝑖𝑓 𝑑 > 4
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.
Piecewise Functions
Some situations can only be described by more than one
formula, depending on the value of the independent variable.
A piecewise function consists of a set of different intervals of
x with the value of y.
