Twelve girls try out for the hockey team. The two-play goal, four-play defense, and the rest play forward. How many different starting lineups could the coach choose if she needs 1
goalie, 2 defense, and 3 forwards?

The question is kind of confusing. if it's asking how many variations of answers can you give. then do 4^5 for your answer.this would be something like the first question could be a and the 2nd c or first b next c etc. if you can, ask the teacher for a better confirmation of what it's asking. if i'm assuming correctly what it's asking, it's 625 different variations.
