1. Estimate the number of those surveyed in Texas that you think would be interested in buying an Electric Car. State what this value is and enter it in for (a) for your work. Explain why you made this estimate (it is ok to guess). 2. Use the value you found in (a) to calculate the counts in (b), (c), and (d). Leave your answer as an unreduced fraction. Imagine we randomly select one individual represented in the table you made: 3. What is the probability the person is interested in buying an electric vehicle?
