Question

Rework problem 9 from the Chapter 2 review exercises in your text, involving the ice cream shoppe. For this problem, assume Gwen and Harry have 5 types of cones and 11 flavors of ice cream. (1) In how many different ways can your order one cone and two scoops of ice cream? (As in the book, putting one flavor on top of another is different from putting them the other way around.)

Answer 1

Answer:

There are 605 ways

Step-by-step explanation:

To know in how many different ways can you order one cone and two scoops, we can use the rule of multiplication as:

    5         *           11             *            11         =    605

  Cone            1st Scoop          2nd Scoop

Because, we have 5 options or types of cones, then, we have 11 options or flavors for the first scoop and finally, if we can repeat the flavor in the second scoop, we have 11 options or flavors for the second scoop.

So, there are 605 different ways to order one cone and two scoops of ice cream.
