Answer: Out of the 150 people surveyed, 36 preferred relish on a hot dog.

To estimate how many people in attendance would prefer relish on a hot dog, we can use the proportion of people in the sample who preferred relish:

36/150 = x/8,450

Solving for x, we get:

x = (36/150) * 8,450 = 2,028

Therefore, an estimated 2,028 people in attendance would prefer relish on a hot dog.

The answer is option C: 2,028.
