56.1, 56.011, 56.01......................
Answer:
a)125970
b)95040
c)35640
Step-by-step explanation:
a) selecting 12 player from 20 players can be one in
= 
= 
= 
b) since each position has an identity permutations can be used so
Number of ways = 
= 
= 
= 
c) coach permutes 4 players for position other than centers in
ways and selects center in 3 ways
so, number of ways = 
=
=
If you substitute the values for x and y you will find that D. is the only function which satisfies the given values.
