21. Let us see if we can formulate rules to solve equations by looking at patterns.
Every day the Cape Market purchases 50 boxes of grapes
from a farmer.
a) Complete the following table:
| Days | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 12 | 35 | ||
| Boxes | 50 | 100 | 250 | 2 450 |
b) We can check if you are correct by writing an algebraic equation
for the above:
b (boxes) = d (days) ´ 50
Therefore: c = 3 ´ 50
= 150 (3rd day)
c = d ´ 50
250 = d ´ 50
250 ÷ 50 = d
5 = d
On day 5 the market had already bought 250 boxes of grapes.
c) Work with a partner and check the rest of your work in the same way.
22. Examine the following three sketches:
 |
a) Can you explain to a friend the pattern that is formed here?
b) Complete this table:
| Sketch | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 8 | 13 |
| Number of squares |
c) Can you write down the equation by which you can determine your solution?
_____________________________________________________________________
d) Use your equation to determine the number of squares in
(i) sketch 25: ___________________________________________________
(ii) sketch 37: ___________________________________________________
(iii) sketch 101: ___________________________________________________
e) Which sketches will contain the following number of squares?
(i) 130: _________________________________________________________
(ii) 166: _________________________________________________________
(iii) 241: _________________________________________________________
23. Are you able to write a rule (an algebraic equation) for the relationship between the input and output numbers in the following table?
a)
| Input (i) | 16 | 28 | 48 | 60 |
| Output (o) | 4 | 7 | 12 | 15 |
b)
| Input (i) | 105 | 115 | 125 | 135 |
| Output (o) | 211 | 231 | 251 | 271 |
24. Compile tables for the following (You may use your pocket calculator):
a) Flower Pot Nursery sells flower bulbs at 3 for a rand. Indicate in your table how many bulbs would be sold for R1,00 ; R5,00 ; R30,00 ; R50,00 and R100,00.
b) The Good Rest Holiday Resort's tariff is R280,00 per person per night. Indicate in your table the cost for one person for the following number of nights: 1 ; 7 ; 10 ; 15 ; 31.
c) At Sally's Supermarket you can buy grapes at R6,80 a kilogram. Indicate in your table how much you would pay for: 1 kg ; 2 ½ kg ; 4 kg ; 5¼ kg ; 19 kg grapes.

Learning Outcome 2:The learner will be able to recognise, describe and represent patterns and relationships, as well as to solve problems using algebraic language and skills.
Assessment Standard 2.2:: We know this when the learner describes, explains and justifies observed relationships or rules in own words;
Assessment Standard 2.3: We know this when the learner represents and uses relationships between variables in order to determine input and/or output values in a variety of ways using:
2.3.3: tables;
Assessment Standard 2.4: We know this when the learner constructs mathematical models that represent, describe and provide solutions to problem situations, showing responsibility toward the environment and the health of others (including problems within human rights, social, economic, cultural and environmental contexts).
