2 MATHEMATICAL LITERACY P2 (EC/SEPTEMBER 2024) MARKING GUIDELINES NOTE: • If a candidate answers a question TWICE, only mark the FIRST attempt. • If a candidate has crossed out (cancelled) an attempt to a question and NOT redone the solution, mark the crossed out (cancelled) version. • Consistent Accuracy (CA) applies in ALL aspects of the marking guidelines; however, it stops at the second calculation error. • If the candidate presents any extra solution when reading from a graph, table, layout plan and map, then penalise for every extra incorrect item presented. LET WEL: • As ʼn kandidaat ʼn vraag TWEE keer beantwoord, merk slegs die EERSTE poging. • As ʼn kandidaat ʼn antwoord van ʼn vraag doodtrek (kanseleer) en nie oordoen nie, merk die doodgetrekte (gekanseleerde) poging. • Volgehoue akkuraatheid (CA) word in ALLE aspekte van die nasienriglyne toegepas, maar dit hou by die tweede berekeningsfout op. • Wanneer ʼn kandidaat aflees van ʼn grafiek, tabel, uitlegplan, en kaart en ekstra antwoorde gee, penaliseer vir elke ekstra verkeerde item.
