QUESTION 1
1.1 An annual agricultural show is held at NAMPO Park in the Free State in May. Farmers and other interested people visit this show to see the latest developments in farming.
ANNEXURE A shows the route map to NAMPO Park.
Use ANNEXURE A to answer the questions that follow.
1.1.1 Name the TWO towns closest to NAMPO Park.

Verify, with calculations, whether his timing is correct. You may use the formula:
Distance = speed x time
1.2 There are rectangular prism-shaped water troughs for cattle on display. The troughs are made of concrete, as shown in the picture below.

PICTURE OF A CONCRETE TROUGH	OUTER DIMENSIONS OF A TROUGH
	Length = 3 m Width = 685 mm Height = 40 cm

Volume of a rectangular prism = length x width x height
NOTE:

• A trough is a long, narrow, open container for animals to drink from.
• 1l = 1 000 cm³

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.
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.
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 per minute.
1.3 ANNEXURE B shows the floor plan of one of the exhibition halls at NAMPO Park, with distances given in metres.
Use ANNEXURE B to answer the questions that follow.
1.3.1 Determine the approximate distance from stand 14 to the nearest rolling door
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.
1.3.3 The exhibitor's rate for a 4 mx 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 ctivate Wis)

2.2 ANNEXURE C shows the tax rates for individuals for the 2018/2019 tax year.
John (68 years old) received a taxable income of R2 045 364 for the 2018/2019 tax year. He paid a monthly contribution towards a medical scheme for himself and his wife.
Use the information above and ANNEXURE C to answer the questions that follow,
2.2.1 Calculate John's total medical scheme tax rebate for the year.
2.2.2 Hence, calculate the amount of income tax he had to pay for the 2018/2019 tax year. (8)
2.3 John's daughter, Megan, works in Denmark. She earns an annual gross salary of Kr600 000 (Kr is the unit for Danish kroner.) She informed her father that she had the following annual deductions from her salary:

• Kr229 760 for investment policy
• Kr48 000 for labour market contribution
• Kr37 200 for employment deduction

Use the information above to answer the questions that follow.
2.3.1 Calculate, in rand, Megan's annual gross salary using the following exchange rates:
1 euro = 15,64 South African rands
1 euro = 7,47 Danish kroner
2.3.2 John stated that Megan's total annual deductions (excluding tax) are more than 52% of her annual gross salary.
Verify, showing ALL calculations, whether this statement is valid.
2.4 TABLE 1 on ANNEXURE D shows the top marginal tax rate for individuals in the G20 countries. This table provides present and past data of the top marginal tax rates. It was updated in January 2019.
Use the information in ANNEXURED to answer the questions that follow.
2.4.1 Name the country that has the biggest range between 2019 and the past top marginal tax rates.
2.4.2 Determine, to THREE decimal places, the probability of randomly selecting one of the G20 countries where the latest tax rates changed from the previous tax rate.
2.4.3 Use the 2019 top marginal tax rate and answer the following questions:

1. Determine quartile 2
2. The interquartile range is given as 12.

Verify, showing ALL calculations, whether the given interquartile range is CORRECT.

QUESTION 3
3.1 Franco is training to become a pilot. The following shows the approximate cost to get a private pilot's licence:

• 28 hours' flying with an instructor @ R2 050 per hour
• 18 hours' solo flying at a total cost of R31 050
• 15 hours' theory lessons costing R1 242 per 3-hour lesson
• 2-hour ground evaluation test costing R700
• Flying-kit including notes costing R6 544
• 7 examinations @ R190 per examination

NOTE: Solo flying means to fly the airplane on your own.
3.1.1 Calculate, in rand per minute, the rate for solo flying. (3)
3.1.2 Calculate the total approximate cost to get a private pilot's licence. (5)
3.2 Two years ago Franco had invested R90 000 at an interest rate of 8,5% per annum compounded yearly. (6)
3.3 Verify, with calculations, whether this total amount with interest is enough to pay for a private pilot's licence. Franco noted that not all the students passed the examinations. TABLE 2 and TABLE 3 show information regarding the same group of students that sat for the examinations. All students that failed, attempted the examinations again.
3.3.1 TABLE 2 below shows information regarding the percentage of students that passed or failed the examinations.

QUESTION 4
4.1 The Republic of South Africa (RSA) conducts household censuses to collect information. The next census will take place in 2021.
Census information regarding household size is shown below.
HOUSEHOLD SIZE 

NOTE:

• A census is an official count or survey.
• According to Stats SA, a household consists of a single person or a group of people who live together for at least four nights a week, who eat together and who share resources.

Use the data above to answer the questions that follow.
4.1.1 Determine the percentage increase in the total number of households from 2001 to 2011
4.1.2 State which household size matches EACH of the following trends:

1. Increased every year, but only by a small percentage
2. Remained constant in every census from 1996 to 2011

4.1.3 It was stated that the percentage of households with five or more persons decreased from 2001 to 2011, therefore the number of households with five or more persons decreased by 0,060 million. Verify, showing ALL calculations, whether this statement is CORRECT.
4.1.4 Explain why the percentages for the 1996 census do not add up to 100%.
4.1.5 Write down the probability of randomly choosing a household from the 2011 census with a household size fewer than four persons
4.2 The information below shows the per capita income of households in South Africa in 2011.

• Mr Wong: R276 000 per year
• Mrs Wong: R541 500 per year

Calculate the Wong household income per capita per day if they have 2 children, aged 15 and 8 years old.
You may use the formula:
Per capita income = Total income per household
                                         Household size             (6)
4.2.4 A household with an income of R280 per capita per day spends 4% of their income on cellphones.
