Answer:

Total people Favorable = 5850

Explanation:

Total People = 8000

Company Expects who respond Favorably = 6000

Percent Error =
(2.5)/(100) * 6000 = 150

Total people Favorable = Company Expects who respond Favorably-Percent Error

Total people Favorable = 6000-150

Total people Favorable = 5850.
