Function Evaluation for Students

The document discusses evaluating functions by replacing variables with values from the domain and computing the results. It provides examples of evaluating various functions at given values and explains that evaluating a function means substituting a value from the domain into the function and computing the output. The objective is for learners to understand how to evaluate functions by substitution.

ANSWER: 11
Why do we need to
evaluate functions?
Objective of the Lesson

The learners should be


able to evaluate
function.
EVALUATING A FUNCTION means
replacing the variable in the
function. In this case , with a
value from the function’s domain
and computing for the result. To
denote that we are evaluating at
for some in the domain of , we
write
EXAMPLE 1: Mark started selling snacks in
the nearby school. In one day he spends
₱200 for rent ₱25 for each snack items he
prepares. His expenses in a single day can be
expressed as the function C(x) = 25x +200,
where is the number of items and C(x) is the
daily expenses in pesos. How much his
expenses if he prepares 100 snack items?
150 snack items?
Solution: ₱2,700 and ₱3,950
