Answer: Probability that a random chosen adult run or swims is given by

\frac{3}{10}

Explanation:

Since we have given that

Number of adults surveyed = 80

Number of adults regularly run for exercise = 22

Remaining number of adults regularly swims for exercise =18

Now, Let Event A : getting adults run for exercise

Event B : getting adults swims for exercise

So,

P(A)=\frac{22}{80}=\frac{11}{40}\\\\P(B)=\frac{18}{80}=\frac{9}{40}\\\\P(A\cap B)=\frac{1}{5}

As we know the formula , i.e.

P(A\cup B)=P(A)+P(B)-P(A\cap B)\\\\P(A\cup B)=\frac{11}{40}+\frac{9}{40}-\frac{1}{5}\\\\P(A\cup B)=\frac{11+9}{40}-\frac{1}{5}\\\\P(A\cup B)=\frac{20}{40}-\frac{1}{5}\\\\P(A\cup B)=\frac{1}{2}-\frac{1}{5}\\\\P(A\cup B)=\frac{5-2}{10}=\frac{3}{10}

Hence, Probability that a random chosen adult run or swims is given by

\frac{3}{10}

Let the distance of the engineer from the base of the building be x, then
tan 38 = 300/x
x = 300/tan 38 = 300/0.7813 = 383.98

Therefore, the distance from the engineer to the base of the building to the nearest whole foot is 384 feet.
