3. Recall
In order to refresh your memory from our past
lesson, let us have an activity entitled PICK A
FRIES. Listen to the mechanics.
 I have here a big fries, some of the fries have
a question and some of it is none. I will pick
the first one to answer and the next will pick
by the last who answer the question.
 The process will continue until last piece of
the fries is answered.
Questions: o It is a function Sir.
o What is the relation where each element in
the domain is related to only value in the
range by some rule? o The input value or the independent variable is
o What is the variable that is known as the the x variable Sir.

o What is the set of all possible values that the
variable x can take?

Excellent!

Motivation
Now, let us have an activity called “Function
Machine”. The class will be divided into three
groups and each group will be given materials
needed in this activity (bond paper and marker).
Listen to the mechanics.

1. I’ll be presenting a function machine and a

set of input to be process in the machine.
2. Every member will help each other to find
the output in the given machine. The first
group to write and raise the correct output
will gain 1 point.
3. The group that will have the highest score
will be the winner.

3x + 4
1) 3(5) + 4 = 19
Questions: 2) 3(10) + 4 = 34
1. If 5 go into the machine, what number comes
out? 3) 3(-2) + 4 = -2
2. If 10 go into the machine, what number
comes out? 4) 3(x) + 4 = 3x+4
3. If -2 go into the machine, what number
comes out? 5) 3(3x) + 4= 9x+4
4. If x go into the machine, what number comes
out?
5. If 3x go into the machine, what number
comes out?

For those who got correct very good, you did great. It’s not that difficult Sir.
And for those who got wrong, do much better next
time.
How’s the activity class?
 We substitute the given input to the variable x to
Very good! determine the output.
B. Developmental Activity
1. PRESENTATION
What have you observed from the function machine
activity?

Very good! The activity earlier has something to do At the end of the lesson, students are expected to:
with our lesson for today which is Evaluating a. evaluate function;
Functions. b. solve problems involving function; and
c. shows accuracy in evaluating a function.
Here are the learning objectives that you will attain
after our discussion. Evaluating a function means replacing the variable in
the function, in this case x, with a value from the
function’s domain and computing for the result. To
denote that we are evaluating f at x for some x in the
Think the functions as a function machine; domain of f, we write f(x).
evaluating a function is analogous to providing our
machine a valid input.
Step 1. f ( x)  2 x  1 Given
In short, we substitute the given value of x to
evaluate the value of f(x) or y. Step 2. f (1.5)  2(1.5)  1 By substitution
Step 3.
f (1.5)  3.0  1 Closure Property of
Let us have an example, evaluate the function
Multiplication
f(x) = 2x+1 at x=1.5.
Step 4. f (1.5)  4 Closure Property of
Addition
Step 5. Thus, the function value is 4

Step 1. f ( x )  2 x  1 Given
Step 2. f (3x  1)  2(3 x  1)  1 by Substitution
Another example. What is the function value of x as Step 3. f (3x  1)  6 x  2  1 Distributive
defined in the first example if evaluated at f (3x-1)? Property
Step 4. f (3x  1)  6 x  1 Closure Property
of Addition
Step 5. Thus, the function value is x  1 .

Yes Sir!

Is it clear now class?

2. SEATWORK

Alright. Let us have a seatwork. I will pair you, and

you need to work as a partner. On a 1 whole sheet of
paper evaluate the given functions. You have 3
minutes to do the activity.

Seatwork: Given f(x) = 2 x2 −3 x +1, find the

following values
1. f(x) = 2 x2 −3 x +1
1. f(3)
2. f(6) f(3) = 2 ( 3 )2−3(3)+1
f(3) = 2(9)−9+1
f(3) = 18−9+1
Kindly solve this on the board. f(3) = 9+1
f(3) =10
2. f(x) = 2 x2 −3 x +1
f(6) = 2 ( 6 )2−3 (6)+ 1
f(6) = 2(36)−18+ 1
f(6) = 72−18+1
f(6) = 54+ 1
f(6) = 55

None Sir.

Excellent. Do you have any question?

3. APPLICATION

If there’s none, let’s apply the concept you’ve

learned in real life situation.

In real-world, functions are mathematical

representations of many input-output situations.
Functions are widely used in disciplines such as
biology, chemistry, economics, statistics and
engineering.

For instance, how can we identify our daily expenses

if we aim to have a business?

Let us solve that through group activity. Listen to the

mechanics;

1. Analyse and solve the given word problem by

evaluating the function. Answer:
2. Write your answer on the strip of manila paper.
3. You will be graded using this rubric. (see attached
rubrics)

Problem:
Mark started selling snacks in the nearby school. In
one day he spends P200 for rent and P25 for each
snack item he prepares. His expenses in a single day
can be expressed as the function C(x) = 25x + 200,
where x is the number of items and C(x) is his daily
expenses in pesos. How much are his expenses if he
prepares 100 snack items? 150 snack items?

Excellent class! Congratulations to the winning I learned the concept and process of evaluating
group. Don’t worry other group/s better luck next functions Sir.
time.
There’s a lot of application of evaluating functions in
4. GENERALIZATION real-life situation Sir.
 By substitution Sir.
To sum up our lesson for today, what have you
learned from our discussion?
I develop the value of accuracy and cooperation Sir.
Very good. Who can give other realization?

None Sir.
Correct. How can we evaluate a function given the
value x?

Exactly. What values have you develop during the

discussion and activity?

Precisely. Do you have questions and clarifications

regarding to our topic?

If there’s none prepare for a quiz.

V. EVALUATION

.1. Evaluate the following functions at x = 3.

a. f(x) = x – 3 c. h(x) = √3 x 3+ x +3

b. g(x) = x 3−3 x+ 5 x2 +1
d. p(x) =
x−4

VI. ASSIGNMENT

Direction: Copy the following. On your notebook, answer the given problem.

1. The math club goes to an amusement park. Students tickets cost 50 pesos each. The bus costs 500 pesos.
This is expressed as f(x) = 50x+500. How much is the cost of 15 students going in the amusement park?
2. Renting a videoke set costs 600 plus 300 pesos per day extention, which is expressed as f(x) = 300x+600.
What is the total renting cost of videoke set in 5 days?
3. What is Rational Function?
