DLC Number and Statement: 5. represents real-life situations using rational functions
Topic: Rational Functions in Real-life Situations
Value to be Integrated: Economic Dimension - Economic Equity
Value Concept: The value of economic equity talks about the fairness and distribution of economic wealth,
tax liability, resources, and assets in a society. While the topic "rational function" is about the division of
polynomials among other polynomials. The said topic can be put in the context of just distribution of economic
resources.

III. PROCEDURES

A. REVIEW Solving Problems Involving Functions

Reviewing previous
lessons or presenting Polya created his famous four-step process for problem solving, which is
the new lesson. used all over to aid people in problem solving:
Step 1: Understand the problem.
Step 2: Devise a plan (translate).
Step 3: Carry out the plan (solve).
Step 4: Look back (check and interpret).

B. MOTIVATIONAL Direction: The teacher will group the students into two and read some scenarios
ACTIVITY - that should be followed by the students. The answers must be written on the
ENTRY POINT whiteboard provided by the teacher.
FOR VTI
Acting as if the two groups are different barangays – Barangay A and Barangay
B.

Scene 1:
1. The two local barangay received a budget of PHP 100,000.00 to
provide financial assistance for each household in the barangay. The
amount is to be allotted equally among all the households in the
barangay.
2. Suppose that there are 30 households in Barangay A and 40 households
in Barangay B.
3. How much does each household in Barangay A and B shall receive?

Scene 2:
1. One morning both of the barangay captains decided to add PHP 750.00
for those households belonging to the low-income class.
 2. Suppose that there are two households in each barangay that belong to
the low-income class.
3. How much does the two low income households and the rest of the
household shall receive?

Processing questions:
1. What are the scenarios all about? -C
2. What can you say about the manner of distribution? Do you agree, why
or why not? - A
3. Do you think the manner of financial assistance distribution is
happening in real-life? Explain. - A
4. If you were one of the LGU officials, would you do the same manner
of distribution? -A
5. Is mathematical function important in real life situations? Why or what
not? -B

C. PRESENTATION OF Definition of Rational Function

THE LESSON ❖ a rational function is represented as f(x) =
Establishing a p(x)/q(x), where p(x) and q(x) are polynomials such

EXAMPLE 2.
a. The local barangay received a budget of PHP 500,000 to provide
medical checkups for the children in the barangay. The amount is to be
allocated equally among all the children in the barangay. Write an
equation representing the relationship of the allocated 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 800 for each child in the barangay. If
g(x) represents this new amount allotted for each child, construct a
function representing this relationship.

E. PRACTICE Direction: The teacher will read a story to the class and the students must solve

Developing mastery
of the lesson. “Field Trip with Miss Heaven”

It was the month of march and High School And Senior High school students
in Pasay City West High School had their annual field trip.

Miss Heaven as an adviser has the responsibility to take charge in facilitating

the said field trip. The principal announced that each section should pay PHP
20,000.00 a total of transportation, parking and entrance fees. The said amount
should be fairly distributed to all the students that will join the field trip.

Complete and evaluate the function in x = 15, 20, 25, 30, 35. Complete the
table to determine how much each student must pay to cover the expenses.

After settling all the fees needed, they started to travel to their destination.
School buses arrived at Manila Zoo on time and they have learned that they
 have to pay for a tour guide’s service and each student must pay PHP 10.00
each.

If g(x) represents this new amount shared per student, complete and evaluate
the function in x = 15, 20, 25, 30, 35 and use the table below to show how much
in total a student should pay.

Miss Heaven received further information that the trip must include student-
facilitators. She decides that ten (10) students will serve as student-facilitators,
and the student-facilitators will not be required to pay for their trip. The
expenses of the student-facilitators will be covered by the other students.

Complete the function and the table below to see the final cost per student.

The field trip went well and everyone enjoyed it.

“See you on our next trip!” Miss Heaven said as she waved goodbye.

___2. The domain of a rational function is the set of all numbers except the
zeros of the numerator.
 ___3. The general form of a rational function is p(x)q(x) ,
where p(x) and q(x) are polynomials and q(x)≠0.

Answer:
1. T
2. F
3. T

II. Problem Solving

Direction: Read the problem carefully and perform what is asked.

The fixed costs of camping in Mt. Makiling — which tents, staff salaries,
staff meals, and all equipment — are PHP 10,000.00. There is an additional
cost of PHP 50.00 per camper for food. Because some campers might not be
able to afford the camp, 10 campers will be allowed to attend for free. Write
an equation that expresses the cost per paying camper (y) in terms of the total
number of campers (x).

Answer:

10,000+50x
