Final answer:

To find the probability that 16 or more housing units are owner-occupied out of a random sample of 18, calculate 1 - the p-value for x < 16. The probability is 0.9813.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the probability that 16 or more housing units are owner-occupied out of a random sample of 18, we need to calculate the probability of getting 16, 17, or 18 owner-occupied units.

We know that the p-value for x < 16 is given as 0.0187. This means that the probability of getting 16 or more owner-occupied units is 1 - 0.0187 = 0.9813.

So, the probability that 16 or more housing units are owner-occupied is 0.9813.
