Answer 1

Answer: 540

Explanation:

Given : The owner of a stereo store wants to advertise that he has many different sound systems in stock.

Number of different CD​ players =6

Number of different receivers= 10

Number of different speakers = 9

We are assuming that a sound system consists of one of​ each .

Then by Fundamental principle of counting , we have

The number of different sound systems can he​ advertise = (Number of different CD​ players)x (Number of different receivers) x(Number of different speakers)

= 6 x10 x 9 =540

Hence, the number of different sound systems can he​ advertise =540
