    Probability of x occurring is p (x) = 0.05

    Probability of y occurring is p (y) = 0.02

    Given that the two events are mutually exclusive, the probability of the two events occurring will be given by:

    P (x or y) = 0.05+0.02=0.07

    The answer is 0.07

    The probability that neither x nor y occurs will be given by:

    1-P (x or y)

    =1-0.07
