Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1:

y = mx + b Slope Intercept Form

Step 2:

2x - 3y = 6 Equation

Step 3:

- 3y = - 2x + 6 Subtract 2x on both sides

Step 4:

y = 2/3x - 2 Divide - 3 on both sides

Answer:

y = 2/3x - 2

Answer:

$20,475\ ways$

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

<u><em>Combinations</em></u> are a way to calculate the total outcomes of an event where order of the outcomes does not matter.

To calculate combinations, we will use the formula

$C(n,r)=\frac{n!}{r!(n-r)!}$

where

n represents the total number of items

r represents the number of items being chosen at a time.

In this problem

$n=28\\r=4$

substitute

$C(28,4)=\frac{28!}{4!(28-4)!}\\\\C(28,4)=\frac{28!}{4!(24)!}$

simplify

$C(28,4)=\frac{(28)(27)(26)(25)(24!)}{4!(24)!}$

$C(28,4)=\frac{(28)(27)(26)(25)}{(4)(3)(2)(1)}$

$C(28,4)=20,475\ ways$
