Solution :-

Given:

Total number of players = 16

Number of players to be selected = 11

So, the combination is 16C11

By using the formula,

nCr =\( \dfrac{ n!}{r!(n – r)!}\)

16C11 = \( \dfrac{16! }{ 11! (16 – 11)!}\)

= 4×7×13×12

= 4368

(i) Include 2 particular players?

It is told that two players are always included.

Now, we have to select 9 players out of the remaining 14 players as 2 players are already selected.

Number of ways = 14C9

14C9 =\(\dfrac{ 14! }{ 9! (14 – 9)!}\)

= 7×13×11×2

= 2002

(ii) Exclude 2 particular players?

It is told that two players are always excluded.

Now, we have to select 11 players out of the remaining 14 players as 2 players are already removed.

Number of ways = 14C9

14C11 = \(\dfrac{ 14! }{ 11! (14 – 11)!}\)

= 14×13×2

= 364

The required no. of ways are 4368, 2002, 364.
