DEPARTMENT OF WATER AND SANITATION, SOUTH AFRICA

Assume you are working for the Department of Water and Sanitation in South Africa, as a Statistician and the Minister of Water and Sanitation has provided you with the following TWO (2) tasks from the two different sections in preparation for the National Address to be held on the 30th of December 2020 where the interpretation is going to be done in the presence of all the Ministers. Complete all the tasks by providing the relevant solutions [Show all your workings].

TASK A WATER REQUIREMENTS IN CAPE TOWN - ONE

The capacities (in millions of litres) of each of the FOUR (4) major storage dams that supply

the water requirements of Cape Town are shown in Table 1.1 below;

Storage Dam

Capacity (ML)

Wemmershoek

158 644

Steenbras

95 284

Voelvlei

244 122

Theewatersloof

440 255

 

1.1 Construct a pie chart showing the percentage of water supplied by each storage dam and write a report about water requirements in Cape Town.

1.1.1 What percentage of Cape Town’s water supply is provided by:

1.1.1.1 Voelvlei dam?

1.1.1.2 Wemmershoek and Steenbras dams together?

1.2 Explain the term ‘trend’ as used in Time Series Analysis and Forecasting and how this could be used to the benefit of the Department of Water and Sanitation, in South Africa.

TASK B SAMPLE OF METRE RECORDINGS ERRORS IN CAPE TOWN TWO

The number of recording errors in a set of 10 residential properties is given below.

37 31 48 56 33 59 65 70 79 84

2.1 Group the data for metre recording errors into a frequency distribution with a lowest class lower limit of 30 recording errors and class width of 10 recording errors.

2.2 Using the raw data for the sample of metre recording errors in Cape Town determine the range.

2.3 Determine the mean from the raw data for sample of metre recording errors in Cape Town.

2.4 Construct an OGIVE curve corresponding to the data for the sample of metre recording errors in Cape Town.
