To complete the two-way table, we need to know the total number of adults in the random sample. Let's assume there were 100 adults surveyed. Based on the given information, we know that 29 people prefer a water ride that is not also a roller coaster.

To complete the two-way table, we need to know the total number of adults in the random sample.

Let's assume there were 100 adults surveyed.

Based on the given information, we know that 29 people prefer a water ride that is not also a roller coaster.

Therefore, we can fill in the cell that represents this preference in the table with the value 29.

However, since we don't have information about other preferences, we cannot fill in the other cells of the two-way table.
