The probability that a randomly selected citizen has a favorable or unfavorable opinion is 1 or 100%.

In this question, we have only two answers favorable or unfavorable.

A person can't have both opinions at the same time.

So these events - favorable and unfavorable are mutually exclusive events i.e one event cannot occur when the other occurs.

P(UF) be the probability of a person who has an unfavorable opinion

Now, the probability of either one of two mutually exclusive events occurring is:
