Answer:

Option d. 8 is the correct option.

Step-by-step explanation:

A basketball team plays 3 games in a holiday tournament.

Let the chance of winning of the team be represented as W and losing by L

As per tree diagram attached we can see

In the first game

Number possibilities will be 2 either win or lose

After second games

Number of possibilities will be 4 [(L L), (L W), (W L), (W W)]

After third game

Number of possibilities will be 8 [ (L L), (L W), (W L), (W W), (L L), (L W), (W L), (W W)]

So total outcomes which are possible are 8.

Option d. 8 is the correct option.
