Hi I need help with a question from my study guide for an upcoming test as I am not good at understanding word problems. Thank you

Question 1: A football quarterback has 2 more chances to throw a touchdown before his team is forced to punt the ball. He misses the receiver on the first throw 30% of the time. When his first throw is incomplete, he misses the receiver on the second throw 10% of the time. What is the probability of not throwing the ball to a receiver on either throw?

Question 2: Alan is conducting an experiment to determine whether a new medication is effective in reducing coughing. He finds 2,000 volunteers with coughing issues and divides them into two groups. The control group does not receive any medication; the treatment group receives the medication. The patients in the treatment group show reduced signs of coughing. What can Alan conclude from this experiment?
