Quarter I, Week 2
PERFORMANCE TASK (RATIONAL INEQUALITY)

You are analyzing your bills in CENPELCO for the consecutive months. Using your bill at home
express the amount per kwh (A) as a function of kilowatt per hour (k) consumed for the last two
consecutive months. Then create austerity plan for the next month. (austerity- measures taken to
reduce spending).
