(2) 1.4 Jabulani claims that it took him 2 hours and 45 minutes to travel the distance between Pretoria and Klerksdorp at an average speed of 100 km/h. Verify, using calculations, whether Jabulani’s claim is correct. You may use the formula: Distance = time × average speed (5) [18] Demo NW/JUNE/MATLIT/ EMIS/6******* ### Page 4 Downloaded from hlayiso.com 4 MATHEMATICAL LITERACY/P2 NW/JUNE 2018 GRADE 11 QUESTION 2 Mrs Thompson decided to install a solar geyser on the roof of her house to reduce the electricity bill. The solar panels use sunlight to heat the water stored in the cylindrical tank. The heated water can then be used in the house. There are six people altogether in Mrs Thompson’s household. The solar geyser consists of rectangular solar panels and a cylindrical storage tank as shown in the diagrams below. Solar panels Geyser breadth = 1,5m length You may use the following formulae: Area of rectangle = length × breadth Volume of cylinder = π × r2 × h, where π = 3,142 1ℓ = 1 000 cm3 and π = 3,142 Use the information above to answer the questions that follow. 2.1 Mrs Thompson was told that she needs solar panels with an area of 2 m2 for the first two members in the household and thereafter an area of 0,7 m2 for each additional member. Calculate the total length of the solar panels needed by Mrs Thompson. (5) 2.2 The geyser has a volume of 150 ℓ and a height of 120 cm. Calculate the radius, to the nearest cm, of the geyser.

Mrs Thompson is offered 15% discount if she pays full amount before installation. She then considered taking a personal loan over 36 months in order to install the geyser. She obtained the personal loan repayment table from Leballo Financial Assistance provided on ANNEXURE A Use ANNEXURE A and the information above to answer questions that follow. 2.3.1 Mrs Thompson claims that a loan of R10 000 will be sufficient to pay the total cost required by the electrician. Verify, using calculations, whether her claim is correct. (4) 2.3.2 Determine: (a) the initiation fee as a percentage of the loan amount. (2) (b) the total interest she will pay for her loan. (3) 2.3.3 Give ONE possible reason for paying monthly balance protection insurance fee. (2) 2.4 The electrician told Mrs Thompson that the temperature of the geyser should always be at 140˚F. Calculate the temperature of the geyser in ˚C. You may use the formula: ˚F = 1,8 × ˚C + 32˚ (3) [24] Demo NW/JUNE/MATLIT/ EMIS/6******* ### Page 6 Downloaded from hlayiso.com 6 MATHEMATICAL LITERACY/P2 NW/JUNE 2018 GRADE 11 QUESTION 3 Mr Thibedi and his family travelled from Durban to East London. They left Durban with a full tank of petrol. Along the way they stopped at a petrol station to refuel at the cost of R420,30. Note: The car has a consumption rate of 9 litres per 100 km. The capacity of the tank is 60 litres. The cost of fuel is R14,01 per litre. A map of South Africa showing the national roads is given on ANNEXURE B Use ANNEXURE B to answer the questions that follow. 3.1 Calculate the actual distance (in kilometres) between Durban and East London. (4) 3.2 Before refuelling, the fuel gauge indicated that the tank was half full. Verify, showing calculations, whether the fuel gauge was properly working. (3) 3.3 Mr Thibedi claims that by the time they refuelled the tank, they were left with 300 km to East London. Verify, using the answer in QUESTION 3.2, whether Mr Thibedi’s claim is valid. (4) 3.4 Describe, in detail, the shortest possible route using the national roads to travel from East London to Beaufort West. (4) 3.5 Give ONE other reason why the family had to stop at the petrol station.

The cable car stays open from 08:30 to 18:00. It takes each cable car 30 minutes per trip. Note: 1 feet = 12 inches 1 metre = 39,37 inches Use the information above to answer questions that follows. 4.1 Calculate the height (to the nearest metre) of the mountain. (4) 4.2 The operator states that each cable car makes more than 15 trips in a day. Verify, using calculations, whether the operator’s statement is correct. (5) 4.3 If the ratio of adults to children per ride is 8:5, calculate number of adults per cable car carrying the maximum capacity. (3) 4.4 The rates for riding in a cable car are given as follows: Adults: 7,6 $ Children below 14 years: 4,8 $ Note: R1 = 0,080 $ The cashier claims that each cable car carrying a maximum capacity gives a company R5 300 per trip. Verify, using calculations, whether the cashier’s claim is valid.
