NATIONAL SENIOR CERTIFICATE: MATHEMATICAL LITERACY: PAPER I Page 4 of 12 QUESTION 2 Paree has bought herself a house. Unfortunately, three months after moving in, she notices dampness on two of the walls in one of the bedrooms. The dimensions of this bedroom are 6 m 4 m with the walls having a height of 3 m. (See sketch below). Paree is advised to have these walls replastered. * Dampness: the presence of unwanted moisture in the structure of the building. Sketch showing bedroom with affected walls 4m Affected Walls 6m 2.1 Calculate the total surface area of the two walls that need to be replastered. Give your answer in cm 2.

Determine the number of bags Paree will need to plaster the two walls. (2) 2.4 Paree is advised to choose a recommended brand of ready-mix plaster available at the store. At the store, there are five different brands and Paree forgets the recommended brand name. If she randomly chooses one of the brands, determine the probability that she has chosen the recommended brand. (2) 2.5 2.5.1 There is a 0,75 probability that the dampness will return if the wrong brand of ready-mix plaster is used. What is the probability that the dampness will not return, having used the incorrect plaster? (2)
