Below is a table showing the major supply dams in the Western Cape. TABLE 1: Water storage in the major dams comprising Western Cape water supply system Storage Major dams Capacity % % % % % (M𝓵) 25 June 25 June 25 June 25 June 25 June Mega-litre 2018 2017 2016 2015 2014 Berg River 130 010 67,8 36,5 38,7 60,0 100,2 Steenbras Lower 33 517 46,5 30,2 37,1 55,4 72,6 Steenbras Upper 31767 96,5 60,6 65,8 57,4 101,3 Theewaterskloof 480 188 30,4 18,6 33,9 54,9 98,5 Voëlvlei 164 095 37,6 18,4 27,4 39,2 81,6 Wemmershoek 58 644 71,2 37,5 50,1 53,2 89,8 Total stored 898 221 383 263 218 433 320 741 474 301 846 413 % Storage A 24,3 35,7 52,8 94,2 *The last 10% of a dam’s water is difficult to use, so the usable water in the dam is approximately 10% less than the dam level. Use TABLE 1 above to answer the questions below. 2.1.1 Determine the value of A (the percentage storage for 25 June 2018). (2) 2.1.2 Describe a possible trend for the period in terms of the total water stored. (3) 2.1.3 Give ONE possible reason for the low dam levels from 2015 to 2017. (2) 2.1.4 Calculate the mean percentage of the dams in 2016. (3) 2.1.5 Calculate the probability that a dam will have 45% or more water stored on 25 June 2018. Write your final answer to 3 decimal places. (4) Copyright reserved Please turn over

Study the diagram of the water tank below and answer the questions that follow. The water tank has the following dimensions: Diameter = 1 500 mm Height = 1 820 mm You may use the following formula and conversion: Volume = 𝜋 × radius × radius × height; where 𝜋 = 3,142 Conversion: 1 cm3 = 1 000 litres The capacity of the water tank is advertised as 3 000 litres. Hence, calculate the capacity of the water tank by using the dimensions and account for the difference between the advertised capacity and the capacity that you have calculated.
