QUESTION 1
A survey was done under 100 members of a gymnasium about the cost of their annual
membership contract,
Results showed an average annual payment of R3 240.
AMOUNT (R) FREQUENCY
0<x<1000 8
1000 <x <2000 12
2000 < x <3000 P
3000 <x <4000 30
4000< x <5000 Q
5000 < x <6000 12
1.1 How many members payed less than R2 000 for their annual contract? (1)
1.2 Proof by calculation that P = 20 and Q = 18. (5)
1.3. Hence, complete the cumulative frequency table in the ANSWER BOOK. (2)
1.4 Use the cumulative frequency table to draw an ogive to illustrate the information
above. GB)
1.5 Use the ogive to determine how many members spent more than R4 200
annually on their contracts. (ql)
