Answer:

0.705

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question :

P(not being late) = p(walking and not late) + P(cycling and not late)

P(walking and not being late) = 0.65 * (1 - 0.4) = 0.65 * 0.6 = 0.39

P(cycling and not being late ) = (1 - 0.65) * (1 - 0.1) = 0.35 * 0.9 = 0.315

Hence,

P(not being late) = 0.39 + 0.315 = 0.705
