Study Notes

Overview of Self-Learning Kit

  • Designed for Grade 11 Senior High School students to enhance understanding of General Mathematics.
  • Aligns with the BEC of the Department of Education and adheres to MELCs (Most Essential Learning Competencies).
  • Features pre-activities for reviewing prior knowledge and measuring learning through pretests.

Learning Objectives

  • Represent rational functions while determining domain, range, intercepts, zeroes, and asymptotes.
  • Solve equations and inequalities involving rational functions.
  • Develop problem-solving perseverance related to rational functions.

Representing Real-Life Situations with Rational Functions

  • Average speed formula: ( s = \frac{d}{t} ). In a 100-meter scenario, this can be represented by ( s(x) = \frac{100}{x} ), where ( x ) is time.
  • A table of values for runner's speed from 10 to 20 seconds shows speed decreases as time increases:
    • Values: ( x ): 10, 12, 14, 16, 18, 20
    • Corresponding ( s(x) ): 10, 8.33, 7.14, 6.25, 5.56, 5

Graphing Functions

  • Graphing the function involves plotting points from the table created from the runner's speed.
  • Points plotted on Cartesian plane:
    • ( A(10, 10) )
    • ( B(12, 8.33) )
    • ( C(14, 7.14) )
    • ( D(16, 6.25) )
    • ( E(18, 5.56) )
    • ( F(20, 5)
  • Connecting the points reveals a smooth curve, indicating a nonlinear relationship between speed and time despite appearing collinear at first glance.

Example of a Rational Function

  • Given rational function ( f(x) = \frac{x-1}{x+1} ) should also be represented using a table of values and graphical representation, similar to the speed example provided.

Average Speed and Rational Functions

  • Average speed is calculated using the formula ( s = \frac{d}{t} ).
  • For a 100-meter track, speed can be expressed as ( s(x) = \frac{100}{x} ), where ( x ) is the time taken to complete the distance.

Speed Table and Observations

  • A table of values for times from 10 to 20 seconds shows corresponding speeds:
    • ( x = 10 ) seconds, ( s(x) = 10 ) m/s
    • ( x = 12 ) seconds, ( s(x) = 8.33 ) m/s
    • ( x = 14 ) seconds, ( s(x) = 7.14 ) m/s
    • ( x = 16 ) seconds, ( s(x) = 6.25 ) m/s
    • ( x = 18 ) seconds, ( s(x) = 5.56 ) m/s
    • ( x = 20 ) seconds, ( s(x) = 5 ) m/s
  • Speed decreases as time increases, indicating an inverse relationship.

Graphing the Speed Function

  • Points plotted on a Cartesian plane include:
    • ( A(10, 10) )
    • ( B(12, 8.33) )
    • ( C(14, 7.14) )
    • ( D(16, 6.25) )
    • ( E(18, 5.56) )
    • ( F(20, 5) )
  • Points connect to form a smooth curve, demonstrating a decrease in speed with increased time.

Rational Functions Example

  • The function ( f(x) = \frac{x-1}{x+1} ) is considered for further exploration.
  • A table of values is constructed for ( x ) ranging from -10 to 10.
  • The function is undefined at ( x = -1 ), causing a discontinuity in the graph.
  • It is essential to represent the graph accurately by omitting the segment between points corresponding to ( x = -1 ).

Summary of Concepts

  • The relationship between speed and time illustrates the nature of rational functions.
  • Graphing helps visualize the behavior of functions, including discontinuities.
  • Understanding how to represent functions through tables and graphs is essential in analyzing rational functions.
