Answer:
Hence there 329 different possible meals that the restaurant offer.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
A restaurant offers 5 choices of appetizer,10 of meal and 4 of dessert.
To Find:
All different possible ways that restaurant offers the meal.
Solution:
Consider ,
A=appetizer Course=5
M=main course=10
D= Desert course=4.
For ,
All individual course=total courses=A+M+D
=5+10+4
=19
So there 19 ways to eat just one course from restaurant.
Now,
For 2 different choices
It is given by combination of 2 courses with each other
=AD+AM+DM
=5*4+5*10+10*4
=20+50+40
=110
So there 110 ways to eat 2 different courses.
Now
For 3 different choices
It is given by
=A*D*M
=5*10*4
=200
So there 200 ways to eat 3 different courses.
Now,
All choices available = (ways to eat one course only +ways to eat 2 different courses+ways to eat 3 different courses)
=19+110+200
=329
