Accepted Solution
A:
p(traveled by car)=9.6% p(stayed home)=88.09%
p(stayed home or travelled by car)=p(stayed home)+p(traveled by car)-p(stayed home and traveled by car)
p(stayed home and traveled by car)=0%
p(stayed home or travelled by car)=88.09%+9.6%-0% p(stayed home or travelled by car)=97.69%
