Part 1: TB Data Project

Part 1

For part A, I used GeoGebra to produce random selections of the countries in which I will be
doing the research on. There was 194 members of the WHO, I randomly chose only 10.

Country Total TB incidence Success rate Cohort size

Egypt 11 87% 8 046
Netherlands 4.1 86% 730
albania 15 88% 412
Togo 36 87% 2 576
Ireland 5.3 4% 243
Slovenia 4.1 70% 98
Kuwait 19 74% 791
Uganda 196 82% 63 028
Central African 540 81% 10 747
republic
mongolia 437 88% 4 111

Since Ireland was allocated the number 1, it was decided to look at the TB cases there. The age
group of 35 to 44-year-old women had the greatest number of instances. They had 30 cases in
2019. The next step was to determine the relative frequency. Since the age group of 35 to 44
had the highest number of instances, I summed up all the females from the various age ranges
and divided the total by the 30 cases that fell into that category. 20+15+10+30+18+12+1+5=111
111/30=0.27
About 0.27 is the relative frequency.

If there were 5000 total women, I would have to determine how many would contract
tuberculosis. The following formula estimates the number of women who would get TB at the
relative frequency: 5000x0.27=1350. The fewest cases in 2019 were among men between the
ages of 5 and 14. There were none. The 0–4 category, with a total of 5 cases, has the second
lowest percentage of males with TB.
Adding all the males that contracted TB and dividing by 5.5+0+10+30+25+21+15+40=186
5/186=0.0269, would give me the relative frequency. With a relative frequency of 0.0269 and
a total of 5000 guys with TB, we would have 134.5 or, rounded up to 135 males infected with
TB. 5000x0.0269=134.5=135
