Answer:
8000 homes
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
See attached for result of the survey
Required
Number of homes to have 4 or more telephones in 100000
First, we calculate the proportion of homes with 4 or more telephones
[tex]Pr = \frac{4\ or\ More}{Total}[/tex]
So, we have:
[tex]Pr = \frac{12}{7+33+56+42+12}[/tex]
[tex]Pr = \frac{12}{150}[/tex]
Multiply this by 100000 to get the predicted value
[tex]n = Pr *100000[/tex]
[tex]n = \frac{12}{150} * 100000[/tex]
[tex]n = \frac{1200000}{150}[/tex]
[tex]n = 8000[/tex]
