Respuesta :

the correct answer is 326.1729

Answer:

448 subscribers use the internet for more than 15 hours a week.

Step-by-step explanation:

If the trend shown in the initial poll carries for all their customer, than the percentage of people who use the internet for 15 hours a week will be the same no matter the amount.

First you need to find out what percentage of users are using the internet for more than 15 hours a week, which can be given by dividing the amount of people who said they use the internet for that time, by the amount of total people

28 / 50 = 0.56 this the probability that a user will use the internet more than 15 hours a week

You then grab that probability 0.56 and multiply it by the amount of total subscribers 800

0.56 * 800 = 448

448 is the total amount of subscribers who use the internet for more than 15 hours a week.
