Explanation / Answer

1)Probability =P(player wins first 2 games+opponent wins first and then payer wins rest of two +player wins 1st ; opponent wins second and then player wins third)

=0.89*0.89+0.11*0.89*0.89+0.89*0.11*0.89=0.966362

2)Probability) =P(player wins+opponent wins and player wins) =0.89+0.11*0.89=0.9879
