1.1. There are 9 national parks on the given map.

  • Richtersveld National Park
  • Augrabies Falls National Park
  • Karoo National Park
  • Bontebok National Park
  • Addo Elephant National Park
  • Mountain Zebra National Park
  • Tsitsikamma National Park
  • Golden Gate Highlands National Park
  • Kruger National Park 9 national parks\boxed{\text{9 national parks}}

1.2. The largest national park Vuyelwa can visit in Limpopo is Kruger National Park.
Kruger National Park\boxed{\text{Kruger National Park}}

1.3. East London is in the South East direction from Kimberley.
South East\boxed{\text{South East}}

1.4. Step 1: Understand the map scale.
The scale is 1:1 000 0001:1\,000\,000. This means 1 cm on the map represents 1 000 0001\,000\,000 cm in reality.

  1. Convert the real-world distance from centimeters to kilometers.

    1 000 000 cm=1 000 000100 m=10 000 m1\,000\,000 \text{ cm} = \frac{1\,000\,000}{100} \text{ m} = 10\,000 \text{ m} 10 000 m=10 0001 000 km=10 km10\,000 \text{ m} = \frac{10\,000}{1\,000} \text{ km} = 10 \text{ km}

    So, 1 cm on the map represents 10 km in reality.

  2. Calculate the actual distance.

    Actual distance=Map distance×Scale factor\text{Actual distance} = \text{Map distance} \times \text{Scale factor} Actual distance=17.4 cm×10kmcm\text{Actual distance} = 17.4 \text{ cm} \times 10 \frac{\text{km}}{\text{cm}} Actual distance=174 km\text{Actual distance} = 174 \text{ km}

    174 km\boxed{\text{174 km}}

    1.5. Step 1: Convert the total time to hours.
    The time taken is 4 hours and 13 minutes.

    13 minutes=1360 hours13 \text{ minutes} = \frac{13}{60} \text{ hours} Total time=4+1360 hours=4+0.2166... hours≈4.2167 hours\text{Total time} = 4 + \frac{13}{60} \text{ hours} = 4 + 0.2166... \text{ hours} \approx 4.2167 \text{ hours}
  3. Use the given formula to calculate the average speed.

    Average speed=Distance travelledTime taken\text{Average speed} = \frac{\text{Distance travelled}}{\text{Time taken}} Average speed=405.9 km4.2167 hours\text{Average speed} = \frac{405.9 \text{ km}}{4.2167 \text{ hours}} Average speed≈96.26kmh\text{Average speed} \approx 96.26 \frac{\text{km}}{\text{h}}

    96.26 km/h\boxed{\text{96.26 km/h}}
