The likelihood that neither of the stocks will rise is 0.14.

Explanation:

According to the Complement Rule, the combined probabilities of an event and its complement total 1.

Given the probabilities of Stock A or B increasing, to find the likelihood that neither will happen, we need to consider their complements.

The complement for Stock A =1-0.54=0.46

The complement for Stock B =1-0.68=0.32

To calculate the probability of both events not occurring, we multiply these complements.

The probability that neither of these two events occurs is 0.46 x 0.32 = 0.1472‬
