Exercise 2 - Recalculating the SIDS Statistics

Let's assume that there is in fact a genetic component to SIDS and the the probability of \(\mbox{Pr}(\mbox{second case of SIDS} \mid \mbox{first case of SIDS}) = 1/100\), is much higher than 1 in 8,500.

What is the probability of both of Sally Clark's sons dying of SIDS?
