Any time there are two options, heads or tails when you flip a coin for example, the probability is 1/2, that the result will be either one option, or the other. The expected result when the coin lands is a 1/2 probability that it will be heads, and a 1/2 probability that it will be tails. What "1 out of 2 failing" means is that for every two students that take an exam, for example, one of them will fail. Of course, it also means, that 1/2 will pass.

If the probability of succeeding is 2%, then the probability of failing is 98%. The probability, then, of failing 75 times is 98%75, which is 22%.

Assuming the alternator's failures are unrelated, the probability of both failing is the product of the individual probability, or 0.022, or 0.0004. The duration of the flight does not matter.
The probability is 1/2.
The probability is that the remaining two outcomes are 1 H and 1 T. The probability of that is 2/4 or 50%The probability is that the remaining two outcomes are 1 H and 1 T.
