Piecewise and Inverse Functions and Composition of Functions

This document provides an overview of the topics to be covered in General Mathematics Class, including evaluating and solving problems involving piecewise functions, solving the composition and inverse of functions, and discussing the importance of functions in real life. Examples are provided of piecewise functions, composing and inverting functions, and solving related word problems involving train and jeepney fares and community tax payments based on income. A unit test on these topics will take place on September 20 from 9:30-11:30 AM.

Learning Objectives:

 Evaluate piecewise functions

 Solve problems involving piecewise functions

 Solve the composition and inverse of functions


Essential Question

 What is the importance of functions in real-life?


Function
- is a relation in which each
element of the domain (x-
values or input) corresponds to
exactly one element of the range
(y- values or output)
Function
Examples:
{(−1,0), (0, −3), (2, −3), (3, 0), (4, 5)}

{(-1, 2), (1, 2), (2, 5), (-3, 10), (4, 17)}

{(6, 10), (−7, 3), (0, 4), (6, −4)}


Not an Example
 

Piecewise Function
- Functions that are functions are
represented by a combination of
equations, each corresponding to a part
of the domain.
 
Evaluate the following using the
function
1. f(-6)
 
Evaluate the following using the
function
2. f(3)
 
Evaluate the following using the
function
3. f(4)
Examples:
1. A proposed train fare would charge
Php20.00 for the first 5 kilometers of travel
and Php0.75 for each additional kilometer over
the proposed fare.
i. Find the fare function f(x) where x represents
the number of kilometers traveled.
ii. Find the proposed fare for a distance of
45 km.
 

Examples:
i. Find the fare function f(x) where x represents
the number of kilometers traveled.

Let x be the number of kilometers traveled


x – 5 be the number of kilometers over 5km
if
if x > 5

if
 

Examples:
i. Find the fare function f(x) where x represents
the number of kilometers traveled.

Let x be the number of kilometers traveled


x – 5 be the number of kilometers over 5km
if
if x > 5
 

Examples:
ii. Find the proposed fare for a distance of 45
km.
Examples:
2. A jeepney ride costs ₱8 for the first 4
kilometers, and each kilometer adds ₱1.50 to
the fare. Represent the jeepney fare in terms of
distance d in kilometers.

Let d = distance traveled in kilometers


F(d) = fare
 

Examples:
if

if
Examples:
3. Suppose that a community tax law reads as follows:
Annual Gross Earnings Community Tax Due
Less than or equal to ₱120,000 ₱0
More than ₱120,000 but not over ₱240,000 1% of income over ₱120,000
Over ₱240,000 5% of income over ₱240,000

i. Represent the income tax payment schedule using a


piecewise-defined function.

ii. What is the community tax due given annual gross


earnings of ₱48,340? ₱160,000? ₱435,000?

Composition of Functions
 

Composition of Functions

- applying one function to the results


of another
- it is written as , which means
 

Examples:
and , solve the ff.
 
2.
 

Examples:
and , solve the ff.
 
2.
Inverse Functions
Inverse Functions
- is a function that reverses another function.
Examples:
1. The point (4,7) has an inverse point of (7,4)

2. The inverse of {(1, 0), (2, 1), (3, 4), (-1, 2)} is
{(0, 1), (1, 2), (4, 3), (2, -1)}
 
Steps in Solving the Inverse of a
Function

1. Replace f(x) by y.

2. Interchange x and y.

3. Solve for y in terms of x.

4. Replace y with .
