Question 1162364: The coach of a college basketball team is in charge of selecting a team for the upcoming season. The coach has hosted try-outs and has cut the possible player list down to 20 players. The coach has to select 12 players from this list of 20 possible players. Suppose that 15 of these 20 players have played at the college level before. Create the probability distribution for the number of experienced players selected for this team.

Not possible. You did not provide the subjective probability that, for any given choice, the coach would select an experienced player over a non-experienced player, or vice-versa, nor did you provide information that would allow someone to conclude that for any given choice there was no preference for either experienced or non-experienced players.
