Answer to Problem 39AYU
18,278
Explanation of Solution
Given:
Companies whose stocks are listed on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) have their company name represented by 1, 2, or 3 letters (repetition of letters is allowed).
Calculation:
Letters to be used for the names are A-Z (26) where repetition of letter is allowed.
Number of choices for the single letter names .
Number of choices for the two letter names .
Number of choices for the three letter names .
Hence, there are maximum number of companies that can be listed on the NYSE.

- can you explain why the answer is 1/3arrow_forwardThe position of a particle that moves along the x-axis is defined by x = - 3t^2 + 12^t - 6 f, where t is in seconds. For the time interval t = 0 to t = 3 s, (1) plot the position, velocity, and acceleration as functions of time; (2) calculate the distance traveled; and (3) determine the displacement of the particleshow the graph and write the solution with a penarrow_forwardThe position of a particle that moves along the x-axis is defined by x = - 3t^2 + 12^t - 6 f, where t is in seconds.
