Question 919263: Jason and Lisa are planning an outdoor reception following their wedding. They estimate that the probability of bad weather is .25, that of a disruptive incident (a fight breaks out, the limousine is late, etc.) is .15, and that bad weather and a disruptive incident will occur is .08. Assuming these estimates are correct, find the probability that their reception will suffer bad weather or a disruptive incident.

P(suffer bad weather 0r a disruptive incident.) = P(A) + P(B) - P(A and B) = .25 + .15 - .08
