And with unlike signs? • To find the sum of two integers with like signs, just add their positive values and affix their common signs to the result. And to find the sum of two integers with unlike signs, get the difference between their positive values and affix the sign of the number with the greater value to the result. • How do we find the difference of two integers? • To find the difference between two integers, just add the additive inverse of the subtrahend to the minuend. • How do we find the product/quotient of two integers with like signs? And with unlike signs? • The result in the product/quotient of two integers is positive if they have like signs and negative if they have unlike signs. • Oo (+), Hindi (-) • Tama (+), Mali (-) • Tama + Tama • Tama (+) • Mali + Mali • Mali (-) • Tama + Mali • (+) kung mas marami ang tama • (-) kung mas marami ang mali • (Oo) (Tama) • Tama (+) • (Hindi) (Tama) • Mali (-) • (Hindi) (Mali) • Tama (+) • B. Plug me in! • Each group will be given six algebraic expressions numbered 1 to 6. The teacher will post a value on the screen. Each group will then plug in that given value on the first expression and perform the indicated operation to obtain the first value. The first value will be used to solve the second expression. Then the second value obtained will be used to find the third value in the third expression. Then repeat the steps until you will arrive at the final value obtained from the last expression.

(2X + 8) / 4 100 Lesson Objectives At the end of the lesson, the students must be able to: • evaluate a function; and • solve problems involving evaluation of functions. C. Evaluating Functions To evaluate function is to replace its variable with a given number or expression. Think of the domain as the set of the function’s input values and the range as the set of the function’s output values as shown in the figure below. The input is represented by x and the output by f(x). Example 1 If f(x) = 2(x + 8), evaluate each. a. f(4) b. f(–2) c. f(–x) d. f(x + 3) e. f(3x – 4) Solution to Example 1 f(x) = 2(x + 8) a. f(4) = 2(4 + 8) = 2(12) = 24 b. f(–2) = 2(–2 + 8) = 2(6) = 12 c. f(–x) = 2(–x + 8) = -2x + 16 d. f(x + 3) = 2(x + 3 + 8) = 2(x + 11) = 2x + 22 e. f(3x – 4) = 2(3x – 4 + 8) = 2(3x +4) = 6x + 8 Example 2 The price function p(x) = 640 – 0.2(x) -represents the price for which you can sell x printed T-shirts. What must be the price of the shirt for each entry in the table? Target No. of 500 900 1300 1700 2100 2500 Shirt Sales Price per T-shirt Solution to Example 2 p(500) = 640 − 0.2(500) = 640 − 100 = 540 p(900) = 640 – 0.2(900) = 640 – 180 = 460 p(1 300) = 640 − 0.2(1 300) = 640 − 260 = 380 • How do we evaluate functions? • To evaluate functions, replace the variable in the function by a number or expression, that is, setting an input value to get an output value. E. Apply Now! Solve the following problems involving evaluating functions: 1. The area of a rectangular garden is 96 square meters. What must be its width so that the length is x meters? 24 meters? 16 meters? 12 meters? Given the function: W(x) = A/x
2. Mr. Masinop deposited in the bank PHP 5,000.00
at 6% annually. What will be his balance in x years? 3 years? 5 years? 10 years? Given the function: F(x) = P(1+rx) • Solution to problem no. 1 • f(x) = 96/x • f(24) = 96/24 = 4 • f(16) = 96/16 = 6 • f(12) = 96/12 = 8 • Solution to problem no. 2 • f(x) = 5,000 (1 + 0.06x) • f(3) = 5,000 [1 + 0.06(3)] = 5,900 • f(5) = 5,000 [1 + 0.06(5)] = 6,500 • F(10) = 5,000 [ 1 + 0.06(10)] = 8,000 Evaluate! Evaluate each function at the indicated values of the independent variable and simplify the result.
1.) f(x) = 9 – 6x ; f(–1) 15
2.) g(x) = x2 – 4x ; g(-2) 12 3.) h(x) =2x ; h (1/2) 1 4.) f(x) = –2x2 – 3 ; f(5) -53 5.) f(x) = √9 − x2 ; f(-3) 0 Do it at home! The function C described by C(F) = 5/9(F − 32) gives the Celsius temperature corresponding to the Fahrenheit temperature F. 1. Find the Celsius temperature equivalent to 14°F. 2. Find the Celsius temperature equivalent to 68°F.
