You now need to discover how much electricity
your household uses or how many minutes
your household spends on the telephone.
Therefore you need to do some research.
Steps:
1. Choose between telephone or electricity.
2. Record the tariffs/amounts billed for each day
for 2 weeks.
3. Do the calculations.
Do the following calculations
? At the end of the 2 weeks, you need to:
 Identify what measuring units was used to calculate
the usage.
 Calculate the average amount for the 2 weeks.
 Estimate what the yearly average would be.
 Determine the total cost of usage for the 2 weeks.
 Draw a graph of the usage (days on the x axis and
number of minutes or kWh on the y axis).
 Write down a few observations that you can
conclude from your graph.
