    A total of 720 elk are likely to be infected

    Step-by-step explanation:

    we shall be using the proportion by survey to estimate the number of infections

    From the survey 8 out of 50 are infected. Thus the likelihood of infection is 8/50

    We have 4,500 elk to consider. The number of elk likely to be infected will be 8/50 * 4500 = 720
