Answer:

36% is the joint probability that a flight arrives late because of weather and ground operations

Explanation:

Given

% of flight late because of weather = 0.75

% of flight late because of ground operation = 0.35

% of flight late because of both weather and ground operation = 0.10

The probability of joint probability that a flight arrives late because of weather and ground operations is equal to

p (A and B) + {P(A) * P(B)}

0.10 + (0.75 * 0.35)

0.36

or 36%
