Expert Solution
Step 1

There are 4 females and 5 males, so total number of students are 4+5=9. Among these 9 students 7 are selected randomly. So the total number of possible outcomes will be equal to number of ways to select 7 students out of 9 students.

The number of ways to select r objects from n objects is computed by Crn=n!r! n-r!.

Substitute n=9 and r=7 in the above mentioned formula to find the total number of outcomes.

Total possible outcomes=C79=9!7! 9-7!=9·8·7!7!·2!=36
