FUNCTIONS AND RELATIONS
4-5) Which of the following relations are functions?
NOT a FUNCTION
Evaluating a Function
7. f(x) = -x + 5 for x= -2
Solution:
f(x) = -x + 5
f(-2) = -(-2) + 5
f(-2) = 2 + 5
f(-2) = 7
8. f(x) = 3x2 + 5x +1 ; x = 5
Solution:
2
f(5) = 3x + 5x +1
2
= 3(5)+ 5(5) +1
= 3(25)+ 5(5) +1
= 75 + 25 +1
f(5) = 101
Evaluating a Function
9. ) 2x2 - 3x + 6 ; x= -5
Solution:
f(x) = 2x2 - 3x + 6
= 2(-5)2 - 3(-5) + 6
= 2(25) - 3(-5) + 6
= 128 - 3(-5) + 6
= 128 - (-15) + 6
= 143 + 6
f(-5) = 149
10.) Heleina wanted to rent a bicycle at a park. The
rental costs 150 pesos for the first 3 hours. After 3
hours, there is an additional 50 pesos for every hour.
How much would it cost Heleina if she will rent a
bicycle for 5 hours?
Solution:
f(x) = 150 + 50x
f(2) = 150 + 50(2)
= 150 + 100
f(2) = ₱250
It will cost 250 pesos for Heleina to
rent a bicycle for 5 hours.

11-12.) Faye wants to buy books from an online store.
The cost of each fictional book is ₱650, but there’s a
flat shipping fee of ₱100.
The function to be used for this problem would be:
f(x) = ₱650x + ₱100
