What I Need to Know

This module was designed and written with you in mind. It is here to help you to
assess your knowledge of the different mathematics concepts previously studied
and your skills in performing mathematical problems. These knowledge and skills
will help you understand one-to-one functions. As you go through this lesson,
think of this important question: “How one-to-one functions represents real life
situations”? To find answer, read and perform each activity.

In this module, the learners are expected to demonstrate understanding of key

concepts of inverse functions, exponential functions, and logarithmic functions.
Learners should also be able to apply concepts of inverse functions, exponential
functions, and logarithmic functions to formulate and solve real-life problems
with precision and accuracy.

The module
 Lesson 1 – One-to-One Functions

After going through this module, you are expected to:

1. determine if a function is a one-to-one.
2. identify real-life situation using one-to-one function.

Start Lesson 10 of this module by assessing your knowledge of
representing real-life situation using one-to-one functions. These knowledge and
skill will help you understand easily on how to represent real-life situation using
one-to-one functions. Seek the assistance of your teacher if you encounter any
difficulty.
 What’s In

Study the graph below, write the values of y in the table below.

Now you have recall identify the values of x, answer the following questions.

1. What are the values of y in figure 1 and figure 2?

2. What have you noticed on their values?
3. Is the value of x in figure 1 have the same value in y? How about figure 2?
4. Draw horizontal lines each figure. How many times does the horizontal line
intersect on figure 1 and figure 2?
5. What function do you call when no two ordered pairs that have
the same first component have different second component?
 Notes to the Teacher

When working on the coordinate plane, a function is a one-to-

one function when it will pass the vertical line test (to make
it a function) and also a horizontal line test (to make it one-
to-one).
 What’s New

Contact five (5) of your classmates to write their Learner’s Reference Number
(LRN) on the table provided below.

Name of the Member Learner’s Reference Number (LRN)

Questions:

1. What did you observe from the table? Did you notice any repeated LRN?
2. What do you think is the reason why learners have their own LRNs?
3. What kind of function is depicted from the given activity?

What is It

One-to-One Functions
A function f is one-to-one if it never takes the same value twice or
. That is, the same y-value is never paired
with two different x-values.
In the Venn diagram below, function f is a one-to-one since not two inputs
have a common output.
 Figure 1. Venn diagram of a one-to-one function.

In the Venn diagram below, function f is NOT a one-to-one since the inputs -1
and 0 have the same output.

Figure 2. Venn diagram of a function that is not a one-to-one.

On the other hand, the function g(x) = is not a one-to-one function, because
g(−1) = g(1). There are a lot of real-life applications of a one-to-one function.
Determine whether the given relation is a function. If it is a function, determine
whether it is one-to-one.

Example 1: The relation pairing an SSS member to his or her SSS number.

Solution:
Each SSS member is assigned a unique SSS number. Thus, this relation is a
function. Further, two members cannot be assigned the same SSS number,
therefore, the function is one-to-one.

Example 2: The relation pairing a citizenship to a person.

Solution:
The relation is a function because each person has a citizenship. However, a
person can have two citizenship, (dual citizen) therefore, it is not one-to-one
function.
Graph of a One-to-one Function
If f is a one-to-one function then no two points , have the
same y-value. Therefore, no horizontal line cuts the graph of the equation y =
f(x) more than once. Example. Compare the graphs of the above functions

How to Determine if a Function is One-to-One

Horizontal Line test: A graph passes the Horizontal Line Test if each horizontal
line cuts the graph at most once.

A function f is one-to-one if and only if the graph y = f(x) passes the horizontal
Line test.
Example. Which of the following functions are one-to-one?

Figure 3 Figure 4

Figure 3. shows that the horizontal line test intersects more than one, while the
other horizontal line test intersecst no more than one. It means that Figure 4 is
an example of one-to-one function.

Now that you have deeper understanding of the topic, you are ready to solve the
problems below.

Let the students bring several round containers or lids and record the diameter
and circumference in a table.

If diameter is the input and circumference is the output, what's the function
rule?

As they divide each container's circumference by its diameter to find that rule,
they should notice a constant ratio -- a rough approximation of pi.
