You can put this solution on YOUR website! A school has scheduled three volleyball games, two soccer games, and four basketball games. You have a ticket allowing you to attend three of the games. In how many ways can you go to two basketball games and one of the other events?(including another basketball game) Clearly show how you came to your conclusion.
------------
Pick 2 basketball games: 4C2 = (4*3)/(1*2) = 6 ways
Pick 1 other event: 5 ways
-----
Total # of ways: 6*5 = 30 ways
