In the pie chart, the demographic breakdown for Black non-Hispanic students is 17%. If there are 1,000 students in the public school, the expected number of Black non-Hispanic students would be:

17% of 1,000 = 0.17 * 1000 = 170 students

Therefore, the expected number of Black, non-Hispanic students in the public school would be 170.

Correct answer: 170
