MET # 1 Functions
Lesson #2 Computation on Functions (Evaluating, Applying Operations, Finding Inverse of a One-to-One Function)
Prerequisite Content-knowledge:
Definition of a function
Prerequisite Skill:
Solving operations on integers
Applying the laws of exponents
Applying the properties of logarithms
Prerequisites Assessment:
Instruction: The students will answer the worksheets on:
a. identifying a situation if it’s a function or not;
b. adding, subtracting, multiplying, and dividing integers; and
c. applying the laws of exponents and logarithms.
Pre-lesson Remediation Activity:
1. For Students with Insufficient Level on Prerequisite Content-knowledge and/or Skill(s):
● The students will be given reading materials or watching videos regarding functions, solving operations on integers, and applying the exponent laws.
2. For Students with Fairly Sufficient Level on Prerequisite Content-knowledge and/or Skill(s):
● The students will be asked to share their understanding of functions, solving operations on integers, and applying the exponent laws.
Introduction:
The concept of function is present in our daily lives. We might not recognize it but it is there. The computations on functions also are as necessary as learning the concept of
functions. In real-life situations, there are instances where we will create a representation of the functions from these real-life situations. You will achieve it if you also have the
knowledge about computations on different functions.
Specifically, at the end of this lesson, you are expected to evaluate piecewise, rational, exponential, and logarithmic functions, find the inverse of a one-to-one function, and
add, subtract, multiply, divide, and composite function in order for you to create appropriate representations of functions in different forms such as tables of values, graphs, and
function models.
Student’s Experiential Learning: Use the Flexible Learning Activity Identified for the topic/lesson relative to the General Enabling Teaching Strategy)
Chunk 1: Evaluation of Piecewise, Rational, Exponential, and Logarithmic Function
A. Formative Question:
How to evaluate functions (piecewise, rational, exponential, and logarithmic)?
B. Enabling Formative Questions
Ask the students these following questions:
1. How do you evaluate functions?
2. How do you evaluate a piecewise function?
3. How do you evaluate a rational function?
4. How do you evaluate an exponential function?
5. How do you evaluate a logarithmic function?
C. Discussion
● First, ask the students to share their ideas on how to evaluate functions. Give them some polynomial functions as examples and explain to them that evaluating functions
means substituting a specific value of a into a function.
● Second, introduce to them piecewise functions and show them how to evaluate those. Show the complete process so that they could imitate it. Ask one or two students to
answer some of your examples of evaluating piecewise functions using the Web Whiteboard.
● Third, give them rational functions and ask them to evaluate it following the same procedure that
they do in the first task, wherein they will just substitute the given value to the rational functions.
● Fourth, before evaluating the exponential and logarithmic functions, ask the students to express exponential functions to logarithmic functions and vice versa. Give one
example of exponential function expressed in logarithmic function and vice-versa.
Chunk 2: Inverse of One-to-One Function
A. Formative Question:
How to find the inverse of a one-to-one function?
B. Enabling Formative Questions
Ask the students these following questions:
1. What is a one-to-one function?
2. What are the real-life examples of a one-to-one function?
3. How to identify if a function is a one-to-one function?
4. What are the steps in finding the inverse of a one-to-one function?
C. Discussion
● First, before finding the inverse of a one-to-one function, explain first the definition of one-to-one function. Show them the three mappings namely one-to one, one-
to-many, and many-to-one. Explain to them that one-to-one, one-to-many are functions, and many-to-one is not a function.
● Second, ask the students some examples of real-life situations which involve the concept of one-to-one function. Examples are the following: fingerprint of a person,
capital city of a country, code in a sim of a phone, and DNA of a person.
● Third, introduce to them the horizontal line test. Horizontal line test identifies if a function is a oneto-one or not. If the horizontal line passes through the graph of a
function at one point, then the function is a one-to-one function.
● Fourth, show them the steps in finding the inverse of a one-to-one function. Give some examples on how to find the inverse of a one-to-one function.
Activity 2:
Students With Digital Tools:
The students will find the inverse of a one-to-one function through the digital whiteboard. They will be asked to write their complete solutions on the digital whiteboard.
Students Without Digital Tools:
The students find the inverse of a one-to-one function through the given worksheets.
Chunk 3: Operations on Functions (Addition, Subtraction, Multiplication, Division, and Composition)
A. Formative Questions:
How to add, subtract, multiply, divide functions, and find the composite of functions?
B. Enabling Formative Questions
Ask the students these following questions:
1. How do you add f(x) and g(x)?
2. How do you subtract f(x) and g(x)?
3. How do you multiply f(x) and g(x)?
4. How do you divide f(x) and g(x)?
5. What is the composition of functions?
C. Discussion
● First, present to the students the rules in adding, subtracting, multiplying, dividing functions, and finding composition of functions. No need to dig more on this
topic. Instead, let the students apply the rules through answering the online activity or worksheet.
● Second, provide the students a worksheet or online activity that will let them add, subtract, multiply, divide functions, and find the composite of functions
Students With Digital Tools:
The students will be given an online worksheet on adding, subtracting, multiplying, dividing functions and finding the composite of functions.
Students Without Digital Tools:
The students will add, subtract, multiply, and divide functions, and find the composite of functions through the given worksheets.
Synthesis
How do we compute for the mean of a sampling distribution?
Why do think it is important to discover that the population mean is equal to the mean of the sampling distribution of the sample means?
What is the relationship of a population standard deviation to a sample standard deviation?
RUA of a Student’s Learning:
The students are expected to create the following based on their understanding of the lesson.
Ask the students to discuss how to evaluate functions, how to find the inverse of functions, and how to apply the operations on functions based on your understanding of the
lesson. The output may be in the form of written report, a graphic organizer or diagram, or a video recording.
● Option A - Create a written report explaining the process on how to evaluate functions, how to find the inverse of functions, and how to apply the operations
on functions. You may create your own functions and examples.
● Option B - Create a graphic organizer or diagram showing the process on how to evaluate functions, how to find the inverse of functions, and how to apply
the operations on functions. You may create your own functions and examples.
● Option C - Create a video recording about the process on how to evaluate functions, how to find the inverse of functions, and how to apply the operations on functions.
You may create your own functions and examples.
Post-lesson Remediation Activity:
The students will be given with additional learning resources about evaluation of piecewise, rational, exponential, and logarithmic functions, inverse of functions, and
activities
about computation on functions.
