Question 1

Use ANNEXURE A to answer the questions that follow.

1.1.1 Name the TWO towns closest to NAMPO Park. (2)

1.1.2 Give the TWO general compass directions that a visitor must use to travel

by car from OR Tambo Airport, via Klerksdorp, to reach NAMPO Park. (4)

1.1.3 The distance from Bloemfontein to Welkom is 152 km and the distance

from Bloemfontein to Bultfontein is 100 km.

Determine, with calculations, the route the organisers used to indicate the

distance from Bloemfontein to NAMPO Park. (3)

1.1.4 Alfred departs from NAMPO Park at 18:45 and travels to Sasolburg at an

average speed of 88 km/h. He calls his wife to inform her that he will arrive

in Sasolburg at 8 pm.

Verify, with calculations, whether his timing is correct.

You may use the formula:

Distance = speed x time (6)

1.2 Use the information above to answer the questions that follow.

1.2.1 Calculate, in cm , the volume of concrete used to make this trough if the

trough can hold a maximum of 485 l of water. (7)

1.2.2 A cow drinks 56 L of water per day. Alfred stated that a full trough has

enough water for 8 cows per day.

Verify, with calculations, whether this statement is CORRECT. (3)

1.2.3 Determine how long, to the nearest minute, it will take to fill a half empty

trough if the water flows in at a rate of 14,5 I per minute. (3)

Use ANNEXURE B to answer the questions that follow.

1.3.1 Determine the approximate distance from stand 14 to the nearest rolling

door. (2)

1.3.2 Measure the distance from the beginning of stand 10 to the end of stand 17

and hence, determine, to ONE decimal place, the scale of this plan. (4)

1.3.3 The exhibitor’s rate for a 4 m x 4 m stand is R22 942.

Cyril stated that he must pay exactly R25 000 for stand 26.

Verify, showing ALL calculations, whether this statement is valid. (5)
