Sagot :

Answer: c. [tex]P(I \text{ or }\overline{H})[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Notation to show "not an event E" : [tex]\overline{E}[/tex]

Given:  I = the event that a player in an infielder.

H = the event that a player is a great hitter.

= the event that a player is not a great hitter.

The correct symbol for the probability that a player is an infielder or is not a great hitter : [tex]P(I \text{ or }\overline{H})[/tex]

hence, the correct option is  c. [tex]P(I \text{ or }\overline{H})[/tex]
