To determine what percentage of males polled supported Wilson, we focus on the given data specifically for males who support Wilson. The relative frequency table provides us with the necessary information:
- The relative frequency of males who support Wilson is [tex]\(0.18\)[/tex].
To convert this relative frequency into a percentage:
1. Recall that relative frequencies can be converted to percentages by multiplying by 100.
2. So, we calculate [tex]\(0.18 \times 100\)[/tex].
This gives us:
[tex]\[ 0.18 \times 100 = 18 \][/tex]
Therefore, the percentage of males polled who supported Wilson is:
[tex]\[ 18\% \][/tex]
Thus, the correct answer is:
C. [tex]\( 18\% \)[/tex]
