The tree diagram shows the possible win/loss paths for a basketball team playing in a tournament. harris high school loses 1 game in the tournament. how many ways could this happen? a) 1 b) 2 c) 3 d) 4

There are three ways it can happen: WWL, WLW, LWW.

The first one, i believe, would be correct. all the others have one thing in common, and that's that they have repeating numbers. in the second one, x and y have repeating 6's and 3's, and in the third, x and y have repeating 6's as well. in the last one, there are repeating 3's. the first one has no repeating numbers.
