Introduction
Have you heard about Mindset? Mindset Network, a South African non-profit organisation, was founded in 2002. We develop and distribute quality and contextually relevant educational resources for use in the schooling, health and vocational sectors. We distribute our materials through various technology platforms like TV broadcasts, the Internet (www.mindset.co.za/learn) and on DVDs. The materials are made available in video, print and in computer-based multimedia formats. At Mindset we are committed to innovation. In the last two years, we successfully ran a series of broadcast events leading up to and in support of the NSC examinations Now we are proud to announce our 2011 edition of Matric Exam Revision, which began with our Winter School in July. We’ve expanded the broadcast to support you in seven subjects - Mathematics, Physical Sciences, Life Sciences, Mathematical Literacy, English 1st Additional Language, Accounting and Geography. During our Spring School, you will get exam overviews, study tips on each of the topics we cover, detailed solutions to selected questions from previous examination papers, short question and answer sessions so you can check you are on track and live phone in programmes so you can work through more exam questions with an experienced teacher. Getting the most from Spring School Before you watch the broadcast of a topic, read through the questions for the topic and try to answer them without looking up the solutions. If you get stuck and can’t complete the answer don’t panic. Make a note of any questions you have. When watching the Topic session, compare the approach you took to what the teacher does. Don’t just copy the answers down but take note of the method used. Make sure you keep this booklet for after Spring School. You can re-do the exam questions you did not get totally correct and mark your own work by looking up the solutions at the back of the booklet. Remember that exam preparation also requires motivation and discipline, so try to stay positive, even when the work appears to be difficult. Every little bit of studying, revision and exam practice will pay off. You may benefit from working with a friend or a small study group, as long as everyone is as committed as you are. Mindset believes that the 2011 Spring School programme will help you achieve the results you want. If you find Spring School a useful way to revise and prepare for your exams, remember that we will be running Exam School from 15th October to 22nd November as well where we will be repeating material from Spring School with additional live shows. See the full schedule below.

Topic Tips for Data Representation
Overview Bar Charts Histograms Pie Charts
Bar Charts Key Concepts
Data is represented in a vertical or horizontal bar. Bars are separated by spaces indicating discrete data. Useful for representing data where different categories of data are being
compared in size. The size of the individual bars is in proportion to the value of the data and needs
a suitable scale. Common Errors
No spaces left between bars. Incorrect scales.
Study Hints
Pay particular attention to compound bar charts.
Histograms Key Concepts
Used to represent a continuous range of data. No spaces between bars. Used when one category of data has a range of possible values e.g. Birth
weights. Common Errors
Not realising that a bar represents a range of values (use half way value in calculations)
Not keeping data continuous. (i.e. leaving spaces on chart) Study Hints
Learn how to calculate the mean from histogram data
Pie Charts Key Concepts
Calculate percentages and convert data to percentages. Used to represent portions of a whole set of data.
Common Errors
Trying to make data that is not part of a whole fit the pie chart diagram

Question 8
8.1.1. Fixed monthly cost = 12
400 R8 + 4 × R 75
= R700 + R300
= R 1 000 (2)
8.1.2. Annual transport costs = R75 × 52
= R3 900,00
Total annual costs = R8 400,00 + R3 900,00
= R12 300
Average monthly costs = 12
30012R
= R1 025,00
The fixed costs for February is R25,00 less than the average monthly
fixed costs.. (5)
8.2. 15% reduction means the cost = 85% of R100
New production cost = 0,85 × R100 = R85,00
(2)
8.3. 80 is more than 50, so the cost is R85 per duvet set.
Total cost = fixed cost + (no. of duvet sets cost per set)
So C = R1 000 + 70 × R85 = R1 000 + R5 950 = R 6 950
R 1 000 + D R 85 = R 7 800
D R 85 = R 6 800
D = 85R
8006R
D = 80 (5)
