Answer:

  13%

Step-by-step explanation:

The probability is the product of the individual probabilities.

  p(baking | rainy weekend) = 0.90

  p(rainy weekend) = p(rain | weekend) × p(weekend) = 0.50×0.29 = 0.145

Then ...

  p(baking) = p(baking | rainy weekend) × p(rainy weekend) =

  0.90 × 0.145 = 0.1305 ≈ 13%
