Hint:
 Here we have to analyze the given pictograph. Here the data is about the TV sets sold in the year. Also the picture represents the $500$TV sets. From that we can analyze and find the result of the number of TV sets sold in $2005$.

Complete step by step solution:
Here we need to analyze the question by reading the given pictograph. A pictograph is a symbol or image that represents an idea. Here the given pictograph is about the number of TV sets sold in the years$1990,1995,2000,2005,2008$. From this pictograph we need to find the number of TV sets sold in a year.
So we need to calculate the number of TV sets sold each year.
$\Rightarrow 1990=500\times 2=1000$
$\Rightarrow 1995=500\times 5=2500$
$\Rightarrow 2000=500\times 3=1500$
$\Rightarrow 2005=500\times 1=500$
$\Rightarrow 2008=500\times 6=3000$

It clearly shows that number of TV sets sold in year $2005$ is $500$.

Note:
To make a pictograph we have to collect the data and pick your symbol then assign a key and the final step is drawing the pictograph. When the data is unidimensional and talks about frequency then we always prefer to draw a histogram.
