ladessa [460]

Answer: 5 Households

Explanation:

The y-axis shows the number of households using a certain number of TV sets while the x-axis shows the number of TV sets that households own.

There are only 5 households that own 5 televisions sets. This is the lowest number of households that own the same number of television sets and this makes sense because owning 5 television sets in a single household is not something that is usually seen.
