Answer:

120

Step-by-step explanation:

The subcommittee needs to contain 1 out of 3 freshmen, 1 out of 4 sophomores, 1 out of 5 juniors and 1 out of 2 seniors. Assuming order is not important, the number of possibilities to pick the subcommittee members is given by:

[tex]N=5*4*3*2=120[/tex]

There are 120 possible subcommittees.
