Combinations

i'm in a freshmen college student taking bachelor of secondary education, major in math..
this is my assignment, I just want to know if my answer is correct..!


" a basketball team consists of two centers, five forward and four guards. In how many ways can the coach select a starting line up of one center, two forwards and two guards ?

₂C₂ = n! / ( n - r ) ! r!
= 2 ! / (2 - 2 ) ! 2!
= 1 way
