QUESTION 1

1.1
Audrey started a stokvel on 1 February 2015 to save for the December holidays. She invited 21 friends to join the stokvel. The aim was to continue with the stokvel after 2015.

Guidelines for this stokvel:

• A bank account should be opened and all monies collected should be deposited on the 7 of every month.
• The initial fee to join the stokvel is R250 per member. This initial fee is non-refundable and will be used to continue the stok vel in the future.
• The monthly contribution of each member is R400 and is payable on the 1^st day of every month.
• Members who pay after the 7^th of a month have to pay a fine of 4,75% of the monthly contribution, in addition to the monthly contribution.
• On 20 December 2015 each member will be paid an equal amount of the savings in the account, excluding the initial fees to join, which will be kept in the stokvel account.

During the first meeting all the members paid their initial fees and their first monthly contributions.

1.1.1 Determine the total amount deposited in the bank account after the first meeting. (3)

1.1.2 Lena, a member of the stokvel, had not yet paid her monthly contribution for July by the 7^th.

Calculate the total amount Lena had to pay on 13 July when she made her monthly contribution. (3)

1.1.3 On 20 December 2015 the total amount in the stokvel account was R110 614,84.

Calculate the equal amount that each member received on 20 December 2015, assuming that all the members had paid all their monthly contributions. (4)

1.2 Mrs Mdluli owns fully furnished holiday cottages along the beach. She needs to replace the fridges in 12 of the cottages and obtains a quotation from a furniture store which provides finance. She indicates that she will pay a deposit and agrees to include the extended guarantee, delivery charge and initiation fee as part of the quotation.

2.1
Justin has an injury that requires him to use a wheelchair for a while. He uses the diagrams below to determine certain dimensions of the wheelchair.

Use the diagrams above to answer the following questions,

2.1.1 The outer diameter of the bigger wheel is 54% of the length of the wheelchair.

Determine the length of the outer diameter (rounded off to the nearest mm) of the big wheel. (4)

2.1.2 The big wheel has 24 equally spaced cylindrical spokes attached to the rim, as shown in the picture alongside. The diameter of each spoke is 2 mm. The inner diameter of the rim is 584 mm.

Calculate how far apart the wheel spokes are spaced from each other on the rim.

You may use the following formula:

Circumference of a circle = π x diameter using π = 3,142 (6)

2.1.3 One of the doorway openings in Justin's house is 750 mm wide. Determine, showing ALL calculations, how wide (in mm) the available gap on both sides of the wheelchair is if the wheelchair passes through the doorway opening exactly in the middle.

2.2
The doorway of a museum is shown in the photograph and diagram below. It has two identical doors that can open to allow for the easy flow of people.

The doors have glass-panel inserts, in the shape of rectangles and quarter circles, embedded in a wooden frame, as shown in the photograph and diagram below.

Use the diagram above to answer the following questions,

2.2.1 Determine the total width, in metres, of the two doors. (3)

2.2.2 Calculate the value of e, the length of the rectangular glass panel inserts. (4)

2.2.3 Calculate the total area (in mm) of ALL the glass-panel inserts. (6)

2.2.4 The total volume of the glass panels is 15 985,408 cm³ and the density of glass is 2,5 g/cm³. Calculate (in kg) the total mass of the glass panels. (4)

QUESTION 3

3.1
Gonzales lives in Mission Valley and travels by bus to his workplace at the Mission Valley Police Department.

ANNEXURE B shows a route map for the Mission Valley Transfer Centre bus.

The bus route is as follows:

• Starts at the Mission Valley Transfer Centre in George Dieter Street
• Continues along George Dieter Street.
• Turns into Montana Street and then turns into Turner Street (makes a loop).
• Continues back along George Dieter Street.
• Turns into Socorro Street and then turns into Zaragoza Street (makes a loop).
• Ends at the Mission Valley Transfer Centre in George Dieter Street

ANNEXURE C shows a timetable of the Mission Valley Transfer Centre bus. The timetable indicates the time when the bus generally leaves the different bus stops.

Use the route map (ANNEXURE B) and the timetable (ANNEXURE C) to answer the following questions.

3.1.1 Name the bus stop closest to Gonzales's workplace. (2)

3.1.2 Give the general direction of a bus travelling along Turner Street. (2)

3.1.3 Between which TWO bus stops does the route cross only ONE street? (2)

3.1.4 Determine how long it will take a bus to complete a round trip if it departs from the Mission Valley Transfer Centre at 17:55. (2)

3.1.5 Gonzales visited the Department of Human Services. He left the building at 11:52 and arrived at Bus Stop 5 exactly 13 minutes later. Determine how long he had to wait for the next bus to travel directly to Bus Stop 2. (3)

3.1.6 Calculate the time a bus takes to complete the Socorro-Zaragoza loop. (2)

3.2 Use ANNEXURE C to answer the following question.

A bus travelling at an average speed of 43 km/h departs from Bus Stop 3 at 08:15 and arrives at Bus Stop 5 at 08:23.

Calculate the distance, in km, between these two bus stops.

You may use the following formula:
Average speed = ^distance/_time (4)

3.3
Evelina bought a framed mirror for her room. She wants to mount the mirror on the wall, using two screws. She received the following mounting instructions, diagrams A to D (not in order), with the mirror.

Use the information in the diagrams above to answer the following questions.

3.3.1 Refer to the diagrams and write down the correct order in which the mirror should be mounted. (Use A, B, C and D.) (2)
