2. Sky Cable Network charges ₱500.00 monthly cable connection fee plus ₱125.00 for each
hour of pay-per-view (PPV) event regardless of a full hour or a fraction of an hour. What
is the rule or equation for the given problem?
- Rule or Equation:
𝑓(𝑥) = ₱500.00 + (₱125.00)(𝑥) where 𝑥 is the maximum time in hour/s of pay-per-view
a. Construct a table of values that will show a mode of payment for customers who
may spend 0 to 5 hours of watching PPV events
Number of Hours Monthly Cable Amount of Total
Spent in PPV Event 𝒙 Connection Fee PPV Payment 𝒇(𝒙)
𝟎<𝒙≤𝟏 ₱500.00 (₱125.00)(1) ₱625.00
𝟎<𝒙≤𝟐 ₱500.00 (₱125.00)(2) ₱750.00
𝟎<𝒙≤𝟑 ₱500.00 (₱125.00)(3) ₱825.00
𝟎<𝒙≤𝟒 ₱500.00 (₱125.00)(4) ₱1000.00
𝟎<𝒙≤𝟓 ₱500.00 (₱125.00)(5) ₱1125.00
b. What is the monthly bill of a customer who watched 25 hours of PPV events?
24 < 𝑥 ≤ 25
𝑥 = 25
𝑓(25) = ₱500.00 + (₱125.00)(25)
= ₱500.00 + ₱3125.00
= ₱3625.00 is the total amount of payment of the customer who watched 25
hours of PPV events
c. What is the monthly bill of a customer who watched 12.1 hours of PPV events?
12.1 < 𝑥 ≤ 13
𝑥 = 13
𝑓(13) = ₱500.00 + (₱125.00)(13)
= ₱500.00 + ₱1625.00
= ₱2125.00 is the monthly bill of the customer who watched 12.1 hours of PPV
events
3. The sum of two numbers is 189. If 𝑥 represents one number and 𝑓(𝑥) represents the
product of the two numbers, express 𝑓(𝑥) as a function of 𝑥.
- Representation: - Answer:
- Let 𝑥 be the first number 𝑓 (𝑥) = 𝑥 (189 − 𝑥) or
- 189 − 𝑥 be the second 𝑓(𝑥) = 189𝑥 − 𝑥 2
number
- 𝑓(𝑥) be the product of the two
numbers
