4. A catered menu is to include a soup, a main course, a dessert, and a beverage. Suppose that
a customer can select from four soups, five
main courses, three desserts, and two beverages.
llow many different menus can be selected?

120 different menus can be selected

Step-by-step explanation:

Variations

The catered menu will include a soup (S), a main course (M), a dessert (D), and a beverage (B).

Since there are 4 soups, 5 main courses, 3 desserts, and 2 beverages, one can think of any combination of a general pattern like S-M-D-B. Each place of this pattern can be used in 4,5,3, and 2 ways.

Thus, the total possible variations of the menu are 4*5*3*2= 120.

120 different menus can be selected

step-by-step explanation:

the original amount doesn't ''re just looking for the time it takes for 1/2 of the substance to we have

(1/2) =)     take the ln   of both sides

ln (1/2)   = )   and we can write

ln(1/2) = ) lne     and lne   = 1     so we have

ln(1/2) = -.1092t     divide both sides by -.1092

t = ln(1/2)/-.1092 = about 6.347 days = about 6.3 days (rounded)
