Answer:

= 18 red marbles

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the number of red marbles that must be added

Therefore;

New number or red marbles = x+12

Total marbles will be x+32

Thus;

The probability of selecting a red marble = (x+12)/(x+32)

Therefore;

(x+12)/(x+32)=3/5

5(x+12)=3(x+32)

5x+60+3x+96

2x=36

x=18

AlexFokin [52]

Answer:

95% confidence interval for the proportion of the population which are on treatment is [0.3293 , 0.3607].

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that during the 7th examination of the Offspring cohort in the Framing ham Heart Study, there were 1219 participants being treated for hypertension and 2,313 who were not on treatment.

The sample proportion is :  \hat p = x/n = 1219/3532 = 0.345

Firstly, the pivotal quantity for 95% confidence interval for the proportion of the population is given by;

      P.Q. = \frac{\hat p-p}{\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n} } }  ~ N(0,1)

where, \hat p = sample proportion = 0.345

           n = sample of participants = 3532

           p = population proportion

<em>Here for constructing 95% confidence interval we have used One-sample z proportion statistics.</em>

So, 95% confidence interval for the population​ proportion, p is ;

P(-1.96 < N(0,1) < 1.96) = 0.95  {As the critical value of z at 2.5% level of

                                                         significance are -1.96 & 1.96}

P(-1.96 < \frac{\hat p-p}{\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n} } } < 1.96) = 0.95

P( -1.96 \times {\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n} } } < {\hat p-p} < 1.96 \times {\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n} } } ) = 0.95

P( \hat p-1.96 \times {\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n} } } < p < \hat p+1.96 \times {\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n} } } ) = 0.95

<u>95% confidence interval for p</u>= [\hat p-1.96 \times {\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n} } } , \hat p+1.96 \times {\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n} } }]

    = [ 0.345-1.96 \times {\sqrt{\frac{0.345(1-0.345)}{3532} } } , 0.345+1.96 \times {\sqrt{\frac{0.345(1-0.345)}{3532} } } ]

    = [0.3293 , 0.3607]

Hence, 95% confidence interval for the proportion of the population which are on treatment is [0.3293 , 0.3607].
