What is the probability of selecting a boy or a blonde-haired person from 12 girls, 5 of whom have blonde-haired and 15 boys, 6 of whom have blonde-haired

20/27

Step-by-step explanation:

So it is non- mutually exclusive;

Let B for the boys and H for the blond hair.

P(B) = 15/27; P(H) 11/27; P(B and H) = 6/27

Then, we have,

P(B or H) = 15/27 + 11/27 - 6/27

P(B or H) = 20/27 

Therefore,  the probability of selecting a boy or a blond-haired person is 20/27.

you forgot the options, but i found them anyways, the correct answer is "john wilson believes that words and actions based on the intellect are superior to those based on emotions".

john wilson is depicted as an extremely intelligent man. the point of the excerpt is to make a sort of distinction between emotional and rational intelligence. he happens to have both attributes, but he clearly favors his intellectual gifts. at the same time, because of his religious background, he's a little bit conflicted with this and it makes him ashamed.

hope this !
