Rational function of the form 𝑓 𝑥 =
𝑝 𝑥
𝑞(𝑥)
where 𝑝 𝑥 and 𝑞 𝑥 are
polynomial functions and 𝑞 𝑥 is not
the zero function ( 𝑞(𝑥) ≠ 0 ). The
domain of 𝑓 𝑥 is the set of all values
of x where 𝑞(𝑥) ≠ 0.

The local barangay received a budget
of P100 000.00 to provide medical
check-ups for the children in the
barangay. The amount is to be
allotted equally among all the
childreninthebarangay.

8.
STEP 1:
Write an equation representing of the
allotted amount per child (y-variable)
versus the total number of children (x-
variable)
𝒚 =
𝟏𝟎𝟎𝟎𝟎𝟎

9.
Fill up the table below with different allotment
for different values for the number of children.
𝒚 =

An object is to travel a
distance of 10 meters. Express
velocity v(t) of travel time t, in
seconds.

11.
Following the table of values below, show v for
various values of t.

The local barangay received a budget of P100
000.00 to provide medical check-ups for the
children in the barangay. The amount is to be
allotted equally among all the children in the
barangay. A philanthropist wants to
supplement the budget allotted for each child
by providing an additional P750 each child in
thebarangay.

14.
In an organ pipe, the frequency f of
vibration of air is inversely proportional to
the length L of the pipe. Suppose that the
frequency of vibration in a 10-foot-pipe is
54 vibrations per second. Express f as a
functionofL.

The distance from Manila to Baguio is around 250
kilometers.
a. How long will take you to get to Baguio if your
average speed is 25 kilometers per hour? 40
kilometers perhour?50kilometers perhour?
b. Construct a function (s), where s the speed of
travel that describes the time it takes to drive from
ManilatoBaguio
