Finally, Mario's offers every pizza in extra cheese as well as regular. If Linda's volleyball team decides to order a pizza with 4 toppings, how many different choices do the teammates have at Mario's Pizza?
Number of crust options = 2.
From 5 toppings, the number of ways to choose 4 = 5C4 = (5*4*3*2)/(4*3*2*1) = 5.
Number of cheese options = 2.
To combine these options, we multiply:
2*5*2 =
20.
