Thus there are six numbers corresponding to (1,0), (2,0), (3,0), (4,0), (0,1), and (0,2). Plugging them back into the original expression, these numbers are 2, 4, 8, 16, 3, and 9, respectively. Their sum is?.

The first restriction is that?, meaning that the player gets exactly 4 out of 10 baskets. The second restriction is?. This means that the player may never have a shooting average over 40%. Thus, the first and second shots must fail, since??and??are both over?, but the player may make the third basket, since??In other words, the earliest the first basket may be made is attempt 3. Using similar reasoning, the earliest the second basket may be made is attempt 5, the earliest the third basket may be made is attempt 8, and the earliest the fourth basket may be made is attempt 10.Using X to represent a basket and O to represent a failure, this 'earliest' solution may be represented as:OOXOXOOXOXTo simplify counting, note that the first, second, and tenth shots are predetermined. The first two shots must fail, and the last shot must succeed. Thus, only slots 3-9 need to be counted, and can be abbreviated as follows:XOXOOXO
The problem may be separated into five cases, since the first shot may be made on attempt 3, 4, 5, 6, or 7. The easiest way to count the problem is to remember that each X may slide to the right, but NOT to the left.
First shot made on attempt 3:
XOXOOXO
XOXOOOX
XOOXOXO
XOOXOOX
XOOOXXO
XOOOXOX
XOOOOXX
Total - 7
First shot made on attempt 4:
Note that all that needs to be done is change each line in the prior case from starting with "XO....." to "OX.....".
Total - 7
First shot made on attempt 5:
OOXXOXO
OOXXOOX
OOXOXXO
OOXOXOX
OOXOOXX
Total - 5
First shot made on attempt 6:
OOOXXXO
OOOXXOX
OOOXOXX
Total - 3
First shot made on attempt 7:
