The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem step by step, let's break it down: ### Given: - Probability of Salim winning (P(Salim wins)) = 0.58 ### We need to find: 1. Probability of Salim not winning (P(Salim does not win)) 2. Probability of Formcis winning (P(Formcis wins)) ### Step 1: Calculate the probability of Salim not winning The total probability of all possible outcomes in a match is 1. Therefore, the probability of Salim not winning can be calculated as: \[ P(Salim \text{ does not win}) = 1 - P(Salim \text{ wins}) \] Substituting the given probability: \[ P(Salim \text{ does not win}) = 1 - 0.58 = 0.42 \] ### Step 2: Calculate the probability of Formcis winning In a match between two players, if Salim does not win, it means Formcis must win. Therefore, the probability of Formcis winning is the same as the probability of Salim not winning: \[ P(Formcis \text{ wins}) = P(Salim \text{ does not win}) = 0.42 \] ### Final Answers: 1. Probability of Salim not winning: **0.42** 2. Probability of Formcis winning: **0.42** ---
