In a certain men\'s tennis tournament, two finalists, A and B, are competing for the title, which will be awarded to the first player to win three sets. In how many different ways can the match be completed?

Solution

Total number of sets played in tennis
men = 5 sets and
women = 3 sets

match awarded to the player who will win 3 sets

so 3 sets have to win from a total of 3 sets

wich is possible in 3C₃ ways

= 1 way

as there are 2 finalists we have to multiply this 1 way with 2

then 2*1 =2 ways
