FrozenT [24]

Answer:

126

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 9 city council members.

We have to choose 4 of them.

We have to use the combination as :

$^9C_4$

where, 9 is the population size

4 is the sample size.

Therefore, the total number of possible samples without replacement is given as :

$^9C_4=\frac{9!}{4!(9-4)!}$

$=\frac{9!}{5! \ 4!}$

$=\frac{9 \times 8 \times 7 \times 6}{4 \times 3 \times 2 \times 1}$

= 126
